General info |
csUnit is an open source unit testing tool for the .NET FrameworkcsUnit is designed to work with any .NET compliant language. It has specifically been tested with C#, Visual Basic .NET, Managed C++, and J# |
SpecFlow is a test automation solution for .NETSpecFlow is a test automation solution for .NET which follows the BDD paradigm, and is part of the Cucumber family. SpecFlow tests are written with Gherkin, using the official Gherkin parser which allows you to write test cases using natural languages and supports over 70 languages. |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |
YescsUnit is an xUnit type testing framework and follows xUnit concepts |
No |
Client-side
Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser |
YesYou can unit test front-end components of your applications with csUnit |
YesFront-end behaviour is tested. With specflow specifications of the expected behaviours are made and specflow tests against this |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesYou can unit test back-end components of your applications with csUnit |
YesBack-end behaviour is tested. Specifications of the expected behaviours are made and specflow tests against them |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
YescsUnit has fixture methods such as setup and teardown methods |
YesBeforeTestRun and AfterTestRun are executed once for each thread which is a limitation of the current architecture. |
Group fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data for a group of tests (group-fixtures). This ensures specific environment for a given group of tests. |
YesGroup fixtures are available in csUnit |
N/A |
Generators
Supports data generators for tests. Data generators generate input data for test. The test is then run for each input data produced in this way. |
N/A |
YesSpecFlow contains a generator component. The SpecFlow IDE integration tries to locate the generator component in your project structure, in order to use the generator version matching the SpecFlow runtime in your project |

Mocks
Mocks are objects that simulate the behavior of real objects. Using mocks allows testing some part of the code in isolation (with other parts mocked when needed) |
You can write your own mock objects manually |
YesSpecflow intergrates well with mock to give it excellent mocking capabilities |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesIt contains recipes for combining several test assemblies into one test suite |
YesYou can create test suites with specflow |
