DOH vs Kotest comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between DOH and Kotest?

	DOH https://dojotoolkit.org/reference-guide/1.10/util/doh.html	Kotest https://github.com/kotest/kotest
Programming language	JavaScript	Kotlin
Category	Unit Testing	Unit Testing
General info	D.O.H means Dojo Objective Harness, it's a test framework for the DOJO web apps which tests and runs on the browser and on cloud test execution services like Browserstack Dojo is a Typescript framework build for modern web application, and D.O.H is a basically unit test library to test JavaScript functions and custom widgets	kotest is a powerful, elegant and flexible test framework for Kotlin, formerly known as kotlintest Kotest has excellent support for data driven testing or table driven testing where it has the ability to quickly rerun the same test over and over with a predefined set of inputs and expected values
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 DOH is both flexible and extendable and runs in many environments including many browsers to test various front-end functionalities and components	Yes You can test front-end components with kotest
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes Pieces of back-end code can be tested with DOH as it performs Unit tests. It is flexible enough to test server-side behaviour and functionality	Yes Yes, you can test back-end components with kotest
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	It has various fixture methods like setUp(), tearDown() and Performance test fixtures which are just like a regular test fixtures, but with extra options. Specifically, it uses 'testType' to mark it as a "perf" test, which instructs the D.O.H. runner to treat the tests as performance and use the calibrate and execute test runner	Yes kotest contains fixtures, that is the setup / teardown functions
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 It supports group fixtures	Yes kotest has group fixtures available
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	FreeBSD License	Apache License 2.0
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 You can use a third party library like mockk to create mocks
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes There is a function that allows you to group tests, the 'doh.register(...)' function. It's most commonly used for registering Unit Tests	Yes You can create test suites with kotest
