What are the differences between Gocheck and Shoulda?

	Gocheck https://github.com/go-check/check	Shoulda https://github.com/thoughtbot/shoulda
Programming language	Go	Ruby
Category	Unit Testing
General info	Rich testing framework for Go Gocheck 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'	Meta gem containing Shoulda Context and Shoulda Matchers Shoulda contains two other gems: Should Context and Shoulda Matchers. Should Context allows better naming and grouping of your tests. Shoulda Matchers provides a set of "matchers", i.e. methods that allow you to write much more concise assertions.
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 Yes, supports end-to-end testing so various front-end components can be tested	N/A
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes Yes end-to-end testing means that various back-end components and behaviour can be tested	N/A
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	Yes Fixtures are available with Gocheck either per suite and/or per setup and teardown	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.	Yes Group fixtures are available as a suite	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.	N/A	N/A
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	Simplified BSD License	MIT 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 Through third party libraries like gomock	N/A
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes When testing, developers can create suites of tests	Yes
Other Other useful information about the testing framework		Shoulda Context is compatible with Minitest and Test::Unit. Shoulda Matchers is compatible with RSpec and Minitest.
