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.	QUnit is a JS Unit testing framework. QUnit is especially useful for regression testing of jQuery, jQuery UI and jQuery Mobile projects
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	No	Yes Yes, it is a xUnit style framework
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser		Yes QUnit is commonly used by jQuery, jQuery UI and jQuery Mobile It can test front-end components and functionality
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code		Yes Qunit can test any JavaScript code(including itself), this includes server-side components and functionality. Supports NodeJs
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	Yes By using the qunit-fixture element which is a container for some HTML that your tests can assert against.
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	Yes You can group fixtures together with QUnit
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	MIT 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	You can use third party libraries like jQuery's Mockjax plugin
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes One can group tests	Yes You can use the QUnit.module() function to group tests together
