General info |
Laravel Dusk is an easy-to-use browser automation and testing API.One can use Dusk to programmatically test applications, visit any website using a real Chrome browser, automate repetitive tasks, scrape information from other sites or test to make sure your app always works in the browser. |
Specter is a behaviour-driven development framework for .NET and MonoSpecter enables behavior driven development (BDD) by allowing developers to write executable specifications for their objects, before actually implementing them, this is similar to test driven development however the different nomenclature makes it different from writing 'tests' for code that does not exist yet |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |
N/A |
No |
Client-side
Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser |
YesIt is a browser automation tool which tests front-end components and functionality |
YesDevelopers can create specfications of the expected front-end behaviours and test them |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesLaravel provides a variety of tools to make it easier to test your database driven applications |
YesYes developers can create specfications of the expected back-end behaviours and test these. |
Fixtures

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) |
YesLaravel provides helpers for mocking events, jobs, and facades out of the box or use Mockery or PHPUnit to create your own mocks or spies |
N/A |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesUsing the 'dusk' which command accepts any argument that is normally accepted by the PHPUnit test runner, allowing you to run the tests for a given group. |
YesYou can create your own test suites with specter |
