Goblin vs Vows comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between Goblin and Vows?

	Goblin https://github.com/franela/goblin	Vows http://vowsjs.org/
Programming language	Go	JavaScript
Category	Unit Testing, Intergration Testing	Functional Testing, Asynchronous Testing
General info	Goblin is a simple Mocha like BDD testing framework for Go Goblin 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	Vows is a testing framework for NodeJS applications. Vows supports Asynchronous BDD & continuous testing for two reasons first, reason is that node.js is asynchronous, and therefore our tests need to be, second,is to make test suites which target I/O libraries run much faster.
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, since it is a BDD driven framework, various front-end functionalities can be tested	No
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes Yes back-end behaviour can be tested that is interactions with servers/databases	Yes Since it specifically tests Nodejs it tests back-end components and other server-side behaviours and functions
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
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	No
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
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	MIT License	Apache License 2.0
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)	N/A
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	N/A
