Espec vs Gocheck comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between Espec and Gocheck?

	Espec https://github.com/antonmi/espec	Gocheck https://github.com/go-check/check
Programming language	Elixir	Go
Category	Unit Testing	Unit Testing
General info	BDD driven testing framework for Elixir It is a testing framework written from scratch which is inspired by RSpec and the main idea is to close to its perfect DSL (Domain Specific Language)	Rich testing framework for Go Gocheck is a richer testing framework for Golang libraries and applications that includes checkers and assertions among many other features, it also works as an extension to the testing package and 'go test'
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 Front-end components can be tested; there is also espec_phoenix for the Phoenix web framework	Yes Yes, supports end-to-end testing so various front-end components can be tested
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes databases and server behaviour can be tested using Espec	Yes Yes end-to-end testing means that various back-end components and behaviour can be tested
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	N/A	Yes Fixtures are available with Gocheck either per suite and/or per setup and teardown
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.	N/A	Yes Group fixtures are available as a suite
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	Simplified BSD 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)	Yes It has a Built-in mocking functionality on top of Erlang 'meck' library	Yes Through third party libraries like gomock
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes By use of context blocksand tags functions	Yes When testing, developers can create suites of tests
