Fixie vs DbUnit comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between Fixie and DbUnit?

	Fixie http://fixie.github.io/	DbUnit http://dbunit.sourceforge.net/
Programming language	.NET	Java
Category	Unit Testing	Unit Testing
General info	Fixie is a .NET test framework similar to NUnit and xUnit Fixie allows test methods to be created and executed like other test frameworks, but takes a takes a conventions-based approach, which is a benefit as we do not need to use attributes to mark classes and methods as tests	Dbunit is a Junit extension for unit testing database driven programs DbUnit has the ability to export and import your database data to and from XML datasets. Since version 2.0, DbUnit can also work with very large datasets when used in streaming mode and can also help you to verify that your database data match an expected set of values
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	Yes fixie is an xUnit type testing framework	Yes It is a JUnit extension which is one of the most widely known members of the xUnit family
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser	Yes You can unit test front-end components of youra pplications with fixie	No
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes You can unit test back-end components of your applications with fixie	Yes Yes its used to test database functionality
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	Yes Yes, fixie has fixture methods for setting up tests and at the end of tests to destroy them	N/A
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	N/A
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

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)	N/A	No
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes You can group tests into suites	No
