ExUnit vs Cucumber-JVM comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between ExUnit and Cucumber-JVM?

	ExUnit https://hexdocs.pm/ex_unit/ExUnit.html	Cucumber-JVM https://github.com/cucumber/cucumber-jvm
Programming language	Elixir	Java
Category	Unit Testing	Acceptance Testing
General info	Unit testing framework for Elixir. Elixir comes bundled with ExUnit allowing developers to use all elixir features without compromising unit tests. It uses a TDD workflow, and shows one message per test	Cucumber-JVM is a pure Java implementation of Cucumber The specifications are written in plain texts, which allows them to be easily understandable by all stakeholders.
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	Yes xUnit has the ExUnit framework as an instance	No
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser	Yes Front-end code can be tested using ExUnit, Phoenix front-end framework for Elixir uses ExUnit as the default testing framework	Yes You can test the front-end part like the GUI using cucumber with serenity, they integrate well to test your front-end.
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes ExUnit tests backend code. Typically Unit tests will be written not to interact with the browser, but with ExUnit you can test whichever part of your application	Yes You can test back-end components such as API's using rest&soap clients, and databases
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	Yes ExUnit has a library called ExUnitFixtures fixtures are functions that are run before a test is run to setup the test environment or provide the test with data	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
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 Group fixures are possible with this library	Yes You can group your fixtures inside your fixtures directories
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.	Yes Generators are found in the StreamData module	N/A
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	Apache License 2.0	MIT 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 Mocks are available for use with ExUnit through the Mock module. Also available through the use of third party libraries like mecktest	Yes By using all of RSpec’s supported mocking frameworks (RSpec, Mocha, RR, Flexmock)
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes Using the 'describe' function which goups tests together. Every describe block recieves a name which is used as a prefix for upcoming tests	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/
