Intern vs SpecFlow comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between Intern and SpecFlow?

	Intern https://github.com/theintern/intern	SpecFlow https://specflow.org/
Programming language	JavaScript	.NET
Category	Unit Testing, Functional Testing	Acceptance Testing
General info	Intern is minimal test system for JavaScript designed to write and run consistent. Intern is a complete test system for JavaScript designed to help you write and run consistent, high-quality test cases for your JavaScript libraries and applications. Using Intern we can write tests in JavaScript and TypeScript using any style like TDD, and BDD. Intern can run unit tests in most browsers that support ECMAScript	SpecFlow is a test automation solution for .NET SpecFlow is a test automation solution for .NET which follows the BDD paradigm, and is part of the Cucumber family. SpecFlow tests are written with Gherkin, using the official Gherkin parser which allows you to write test cases using natural languages and supports over 70 languages.
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 Intern is a complete test system for JavaScript It Runs in the browser and can test any front-end component and functionality	Yes Front-end behaviour is tested. With specflow specifications of the expected behaviours are made and specflow tests against this
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes Since it is a complete testing system that can test any type of JavaScript code, it can test server-side behaviour and components as well	Yes Back-end behaviour is tested. Specifications of the expected behaviours are made and specflow tests against them
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	N/A	Yes BeforeTestRun and AfterTestRun are executed once for each thread which is a limitation of the current architecture.
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.		Yes SpecFlow contains a generator component. The SpecFlow IDE integration tries to locate the generator component in your project structure, in order to use the generator version matching the SpecFlow runtime in your project
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	FreeBSD License	BSD license
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)	Intern uses the Dojo Toolkit’s AMD loader. To mock, you should be able to just use the standard AMD 'map' feature, else you can use third party libraries like sinon.js	Yes Specflow intergrates well with mock to give it excellent mocking capabilities
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes You can group tests into Suites which may be specified as file paths or using glob expressions, there is typically one top-level suite per module.	Yes You can create test suites with specflow
