Fuchu vs Atoum comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between Fuchu and Atoum?

	Fuchu https://github.com/mausch/Fuchu	Atoum http://atoum.org/
Programming language	.NET	PHP
Category	Unit Testing	Unit Testing
General info	Fuchu is functional test library for F# / C# / VB.NET Fuchu is a test library for .NET, that supports C# and VB.NET but with a special focus on F#. It draws heavily from Haskell's test-framework and HUnit.	Atoum is a unit testing framework specific to the PHP language Atoum is similar to SimpleTest and is designed to be implemented rapidly, simplify test development and allow for writing reliable, readable, and clear unit tests
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	Yes You can test front-end components by testing individual front-end classes and modules	Yes Autom can perform unit tests on various front-end components and behaviours
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes You can test back-end components by testing individual back-end classes and modules	Yes Autom can perform unit tests on servers/back-end components
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	Yes It can do TestFixtureSetups (SetUp/TearDown), but not TestFixtureTearDowns (not unless you treat that test suite separately)	Yes By using the 'given()' method to setup your environment
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 fixtures are available in Fuchu	Yes By using the 'given()' method to setup your environments
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
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	Apache License 2.0	Atoum 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 You can create mock objects using the third party library moq	Yes By use of autom mocks which are decoupled and easier to maintain
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes You can organize tests in suites and give them names	Yes By use of an extension for autom called blackfire which allows you to write blackfire test suites.
