General info |
BDD style testing framework for GoGoconvey is a two pronged testing tool consisting of a test runner that watches your code for changes, runs 'go test' and renders your results in a web browser and the second a library that allows you to write BDD-style tests with standard 'go test' functions |
Kiwi is a Behavior Driven Development library for iOS developmentThe goal behind Kiwi is to provide a BDD library that is simple to setup and use, and create tests that are more readable than what is possible with the bundled test framework. |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |
No |
YesKiwi is an xUnit style framework |
Client-side
Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser |
YesYes, Goconvey can perform front-end tests |
YesYou can test front-end components with kiwi |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesYes one can perform end-to-end HTTP tests with goconvey to see how an application works against remote servers |
YesYou can test back-end components with kiwi |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
YesYes, Goconvey uses scopes to define fixtures and a reset function for teardown |
|
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. |
YesOne can define group fixtures using scopes |
Yeskiwi has a beforeEach(aBlock) which is run before every 'it' block in all enclosed contexts. Code that sets up the particular context should go here and afterEach(aBlock) which is run after every it block in all enclosed contexts |
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. |
YesThe web UI has a button to open the built in generator |
Yesthrough the beforeAll(aBlock) and afterAll(aBlock) functions. |

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) |
YesUsing the mock package or mockery library to autogenerate mock code |
YesKiwi has inbuilt support for stubs and mocks,including null mocks, class mocks, protocol mocks |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesSimilar to a table driven approach an entire suite can be contained in a single function |
YesKiwi uses the block syntax in iOS to define groups of assertions and share setup state between collections of tests |
