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 |
stestr is a Python test runner designed to execute unittest test suitesstestr executes unittest test suites by using multiple processes to split up execution of a test suite then stores a history of all test runs to help in debugging failures and optimizing the scheduler to improve speed. |
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, Goconvey can perform front-end tests |
YesStestr being a test runner that runs unittest tests, it can test fron-tend functionality and behaviour. |
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 |
YesStestr being a test runner that runs unittest tests, it can run back-end tests for functionality and behaviour. |
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 |
YesBy use of a third party library like Fixture |
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 |
By use of a third party library like Fixture |
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 |
YesBy using a library like test-generator |

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 |
N/A |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesSimilar to a table driven approach an entire suite can be contained in a single function |
