General info |
Goblin is a simple Mocha like BDD testing framework for GoGoblin was inspired by the simplicity and flexibility of NodeBDD and offers many features like the ability to define as many Describe and It blocks as you want, colorful reports and beautiful syntax, running tests with the go test command as usual and more |
Spinach is a BDD framework on top of GherkinSpinach is a high-level BDD framework that leverages the Gherkin language to help define executable specifications of your application or library's acceptance criteria. |
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, since it is a BDD driven framework, various front-end functionalities can be tested |
N/A |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesYes back-end behaviour can be tested that is interactions with servers/databases |
YesYou can test any server-side behaviour with Spinach |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
N/A |
No |
