General info |
Cuppa is a testing framework for Java 8+Cuppa is a testing framework for Java 8+ that is descriptive that is; it uses strings,not identifiers , to clearly describe the behaviour you are testing it also allows you to Group tests together by creating a structure in your test files to reduce repetition and improve readability and also you Define tests at runtime |
BDD testing framework for GoGinkgo is a BDD testing framework for Go that has a great matcher library to go with it called Gomega and intergrates with the standard testing library |
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 |
YesYou can test your front-end code as individual components of code |
YesYes, by creating unit tests then testing individual front-end components |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesYou can test server-side components and functionality with Cuppa. |
YesYes by creating unit tests then testing various back-end components |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
YesFixtures are available via the Setup and Teardown functions |
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. |
YesYou groups of tests can share these fixture methods |
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 |
YesThey are available by running the command: 'ginko bootstrap' |

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) |
N/A |
YesDvelopers can generate mocks by using the third party package 'gomock' |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesThis is a feature of cuppa, it allows you to group your tests together |
YesGinkgo allows you to group tests in 'Describe' and 'Context' container blocks. It also provides 'It' and 'Specify' blocks to hold your assertions |
