General info |
EvoSuite is a tool that automatically generates unit tests for Java softwareEvoSuite is a tool that automatically generates test cases with assertions for classes written in Java code by applying a hybrid approach that generates and optimizes whole test suites towards satisfying a coverage criterion |
SpecFlow is a test automation solution for .NETSpecFlow is a test automation solution for .NET which follows the BDD paradigm, and is part of the Cucumber family. SpecFlow tests are written with Gherkin, using the official Gherkin parser which allows you to write test cases using natural languages and supports over 70 languages. |
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 |
YesYou can test front-end code by testing the classes that provide front-end functionality |
YesFront-end behaviour is tested. With specflow specifications of the expected behaviours are made and specflow tests against this |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesYou can test server-side functionality and components |
YesBack-end behaviour is tested. Specifications of the expected behaviours are made and specflow tests against them |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
You can write your own fixtures but no inbuilt fixtures are provided |
YesBeforeTestRun and AfterTestRun are executed once for each thread which is a limitation of the current architecture. |
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. |

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 |
YesSpecFlow contains a generator component. The SpecFlow IDE integration tries to locate the generator component in your project structure, in order to use the generator version matching the SpecFlow runtime in your project |

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) |
No |
YesSpecflow intergrates well with mock to give it excellent mocking capabilities |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesSuites are generated automatically in evosuite |
YesYou can create test suites with specflow |
