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 |
Spock is a testing and specification framework for Java and Groovy applicationsSpock has a highly expressive specification language, and due to its JUnit runner, Spock is compatible with most IDEs, build tools, and continuous integration servers.Spock is inspired from JUnit, RSpec, jMock, Mockito, Groovy, Scala, Vulcans among others |
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 |
YesSpock tests front-end components and functionality by unit testing individual classes and functions |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesYou can test server-side functionality and components |
YesSpock tests back-end components and functionality by unit testing individual classes and functions |
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 |
YesSpock contains four methods for setting up environments :setup() (run before every feature method), cleanup() (run after every feature method), setupSpec() (run before the first feature method), cleanupSpec() (run after the last feature method) |
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 |
YesYou can use the fixture methods to setup environments for groups 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. |

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 |
YesSpock has inbuilt mocking capabilities and has no need for external libraries |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesSuites are generated automatically in evosuite |
YesYou can create suites manually in spock |
