General info |
BDD testing framework for GoGinkgo is a BDD testing framework for Go that has a great matcher library to go with it called Gomega and intergrates with the standard testing library |
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 |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |
No |
Yesfixie is an xUnit type testing framework |
Client-side
Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser |
YesYes, by creating unit tests then testing individual front-end components |
YesYou can unit test front-end components of youra pplications with fixie |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesYes by creating unit tests then testing various back-end components |
YesYou can unit test back-end components of your applications with fixie |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
N/A |
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 |
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. |
YesThey are available by running the command: 'ginko bootstrap' |

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) |
YesDvelopers can generate mocks by using the third party package 'gomock' |
N/A |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesGinkgo allows you to group tests in 'Describe' and 'Context' container blocks. It also provides 'It' and 'Specify' blocks to hold your assertions |
YesYou can group tests into suites |
