Cuppa vs SpecFlow comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between Cuppa and SpecFlow?

	Cuppa http://cuppa.forgerock.org/	SpecFlow https://specflow.org/
Programming language	Java	.NET
Category	Unit Testing	Acceptance Testing
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	SpecFlow is a test automation solution for .NET SpecFlow 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.	No	No
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser	Yes You can test your front-end code as individual components of code	Yes Front-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	Yes You can test server-side components and functionality with Cuppa.	Yes Back-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	Yes Fixtures are available via the Setup and Teardown functions	Yes BeforeTestRun 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.	Yes You 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	Yes SpecFlow 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
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	Apache License 2.0	BSD 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)	N/A	Yes Specflow intergrates well with mock to give it excellent mocking capabilities
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes This is a feature of cuppa, it allows you to group your tests together	Yes You can create test suites with specflow
