Doctest vs EvoSuite comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between Doctest and EvoSuite?

	Doctest https://docs.Python.org/2/library/doctest.html	EvoSuite http://www.evosuite.org/
Programming language	Python	Java
Category	Unit Testing	Unit Testing
General info	Doctest is an inbuilt test framework for Python Doctest is a test framework that comes prepackaged with Python. It is a simple library with a functionality that makes it possible to search for pieces of text that look like interactive Python sessions and executes these sessions to see if they work exactly as shown.	EvoSuite is a tool that automatically generates unit tests for Java software EvoSuite is a tool that automatically generates test cases with assertions for classes written in Java code by applying a hybrid approach that generates and optimizes whole test suites towards satisfying a coverage criterion
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 front-end code by testing the classes that provide front-end functionality
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code		Yes You can test server-side functionality and components
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	No Lacks fixture management which can make writing tests harder	You can write your own fixtures but no inbuilt fixtures are provided
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.	No Lacks fixture management	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	N/A
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	MIT License	GNU 2.1 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)	A good external library for using Mocks with Doctest is minimocks	No
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes One can group tests	Yes Suites are generated automatically in evosuite
