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# |
Specter is a behaviour-driven development framework for .NET and MonoSpecter enables behavior driven development (BDD) by allowing developers to write executable specifications for their objects, before actually implementing them, this is similar to test driven development however the different nomenclature makes it different from writing 'tests' for code that does not exist yet |
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 |
YesDevelopers can create specfications of the expected front-end behaviours and test them |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesYou can unit test back-end components of your applications with csUnit |
YesYes developers can create specfications of the expected back-end behaviours and test these. |
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 |
N/A |
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. |

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 |
N/A |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesIt contains recipes for combining several test assemblies into one test suite |
YesYou can create your own test suites with specter |
