General info |
Fixie is a .NET test framework similar to NUnit and xUnitFixie 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 |
Kiwi is a Behavior Driven Development library for iOS developmentThe goal behind Kiwi is to provide a BDD library that is simple to setup and use, and create tests that are more readable than what is possible with the bundled test framework. |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |
Yesfixie is an xUnit type testing framework |
YesKiwi is an xUnit style framework |
Client-side
Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser |
YesYou can unit test front-end components of youra pplications with fixie |
YesYou can test front-end components with kiwi |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesYou can unit test back-end components of your applications with fixie |
YesYou can test back-end components with kiwi |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
YesYes, fixie has fixture methods for setting up tests and at the end of tests to destroy them |
|
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 |
Yeskiwi has a beforeEach(aBlock) which is run before every 'it' block in all enclosed contexts. Code that sets up the particular context should go here and afterEach(aBlock) which is run after every it block in all enclosed contexts |
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 |
Yesthrough the beforeAll(aBlock) and afterAll(aBlock) functions. |

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 |
YesKiwi has inbuilt support for stubs and mocks,including null mocks, class mocks, protocol mocks |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesYou can group tests into suites |
YesKiwi uses the block syntax in iOS to define groups of assertions and share setup state between collections of tests |
