General info |
Rich testing framework for GoGocheck is a richer testing framework for Golang libraries and applications that includes checkers and assertions among many other features, it also works as an extension to the testing package and 'go test' |
Codeception is a full-stack testing framework for PHPIt is inspired by BDD and provides a way of writing acceptance, functional and even unit tests. It is powered by PHPUnit. |
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 |
YesYes, supports end-to-end testing so various front-end components can be tested |
YesOne is able to write acceptance tests which are used to look at functionality from a user's perspective. It is able to look at pages in browser (Chrome, Firefox or PhpBrowser) |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesYes end-to-end testing means that various back-end components and behaviour can be tested |
YesIt supports back-end tests, by writing functionaltests one can be able to test server behaviour |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
YesFixtures are available with Gocheck either per suite and/or per setup and teardown |
YesOne can define a fixture and write the test with Codedeception, use the yii2-codedeceptionextention which will autoload fixtures for you |
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. |
YesGroup fixtures are available as a suite |
YesOne can define group fixtures |
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. |

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) |
YesThrough third party libraries like gomock |
YesCodeception provides Codeception\Stub library for building mocks and stubs for tests |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesWhen testing, developers can create suites of tests |
YesCodeception consists of three so-called “suites”: A “unit suite” for all unit tests, a “functional suite” for all functional tests, and an “acceptance suite” for all acceptance tests. |
