Enhance PHP vs Cucumber comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between Enhance PHP and Cucumber?

	Enhance PHP http://www.enhance-php.com/	Cucumber https://github.com/cucumber/cucumber-ruby
Programming language	PHP	Ruby
Category	Unit Testing	Acceptance Testing
General info	Enhance PHP is a lightweight Open Source PHP unit testing framework It has support for mocks and stubs and runs in the browser, or via the command line	An automation tool for Behavior-Driven Development The specifications are written in plain texts, which allows them to be easily understandable for all stakeholders. Cucumber Framework also supports languages beyond Ruby e.g. Java, JavaScript and Scala.
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 It tests front-end functionality and can run in the browser	Yes You can test the front-end part like the GUI using cucumber and selenium, they integrate well to test your front-end.
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	N/A	Yes You can test back-end components such as APIs using rest & soap clients, and databases using whatever client libraries were provided by the libraries that existed in those stacks
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	Yes One is able to write fixtures in Enhance PHP
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 One is able to write group fixtures in Enhance PHP	Yes Using the cucumber extension aruba you can create fixures in two steps: 1.Create a fixtures-directory; 2.Create fixture files in this directory
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 You can group your fixtures inside your fixtures directories

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)	Yes Enhance PHP has built-in support for mocks and stubs. You can set up expectations and supply predictable return values	Yes By using all of RSpec’s supported mocking frameworks (RSpec, Mocha, RR, Flexmock)
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes You can group tests into suites with Enhance PHP	Yes Cucumber allows the use of tag Cucumber feature files or individual tests to group tests. Then, you can pass a Cucumber tagged expression at test execution that specifies the tag (grouped) tests to run. https://www.toolsqa.com/cucumber/cucumber-tags/
