General info |
Elixir library for browser automation and writing intergration testsIt is a front-end testing library that has support for: Selenium (Firefox, Chrome), ChromeDriver and PhantomJs. Also supports JavaScript applications and retries tests a few times before reporting errors |
BDD testing framework for GoGinkgo is a BDD testing framework for Go that has a great matcher library to go with it called Gomega and intergrates with the standard testing library |
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 |
YesAllows for browser Automation and writing of end-to-end tests for web apps, supports Selenium WebDriver, ChromeDriver, and PhantomJS - GhostDriver |
YesYes, by creating unit tests then testing individual front-end components |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
N/A |
YesYes by creating unit tests then testing various back-end components |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
N/A |
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. |
N/A |
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. |
YesNot inbuilt but by use of a third party library like ExopData |
YesThey are available by running the command: 'ginko bootstrap' |

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) |
YesYes, through the use of a third party library like Mockery |
YesDvelopers can generate mocks by using the third party package 'gomock' |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
N/A |
YesGinkgo allows you to group tests in 'Describe' and 'Context' container blocks. It also provides 'It' and 'Specify' blocks to hold your assertions |
