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 |
Wallaby.js is an integrated continuous testing tool for JavaScript.Wallaby.js runs your tests immediately as you change your code (you don’t even have to save the file) and reports code coverage and other results directly to your code editor. Its also uses various techniques such as dependency analysis to only execute tests affected by your code changes and parallel test execution to ensure your tests run as fast as possible. |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |

N/A |
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 |
YesWallaby.js can test front-end components and functionality |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesYes by creating unit tests then testing various back-end components |
YesWallaby.js can test server behaviour and functionality |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |

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. |

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' |
By use of a third party library Jest works well with wallaby |
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 |
