Cucumber-JVM vs Intern comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between Cucumber-JVM and Intern?

	Cucumber-JVM https://github.com/cucumber/cucumber-jvm	Intern https://github.com/theintern/intern
Programming language	Java	JavaScript
Category	Acceptance Testing	Unit Testing, Functional Testing
General info	Cucumber-JVM is a pure Java implementation of Cucumber The specifications are written in plain texts, which allows them to be easily understandable by all stakeholders.	Intern is minimal test system for JavaScript designed to write and run consistent. Intern is a complete test system for JavaScript designed to help you write and run consistent, high-quality test cases for your JavaScript libraries and applications. Using Intern we can write tests in JavaScript and TypeScript using any style like TDD, and BDD. Intern can run unit tests in most browsers that support ECMAScript
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	No	No
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser	Yes You can test the front-end part like the GUI using cucumber with serenity, they integrate well to test your front-end.	Yes Intern is a complete test system for JavaScript It Runs in the browser and can test any front-end component and functionality
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes You can test back-end components such as API's using rest&soap clients, and databases	Yes Since it is a complete testing system that can test any type of JavaScript code, it can test server-side behaviour and components as well
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	Yes Using the cucumber extension aruba you can create fixures in two steps: 1.Create a fixtures-directory; 2.Create fixture files in this directory	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.	Yes You can group your fixtures inside your fixtures directories	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
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	MIT License	FreeBSD License
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)	Yes By using all of RSpec’s supported mocking frameworks (RSpec, Mocha, RR, Flexmock)	Intern uses the Dojo Toolkit’s AMD loader. To mock, you should be able to just use the standard AMD 'map' feature, else you can use third party libraries like sinon.js
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes Cucumber allows the use of tag Cucumber feature files or individual tests to group tests. Then, you can pass a Cucumber tagged expression at test execution that specifies the tag (grouped) tests to run. https://www.toolsqa.com/cucumber/cucumber-tags/	Yes You can group tests into Suites which may be specified as file paths or using glob expressions, there is typically one top-level suite per module.
