General info |
JS Unit test framework, BDD based for Node.JS applications used with Angular.JS web applications and also paired with 'Karma' task runnerIt's a BDD (Behavior Driven Development) test framework for JavaScript especially designed for manual QAs to understand the automation tests. It does not depend on the any JavaScript framework or browser. So it's very well suited for Node.js projects and websites |
Goblin is a simple Mocha like BDD testing framework for GoGoblin 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 |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |

No |
Client-side
Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser |
YesJasmine works well in and with browsers to test client-side components and functionality |
YesYes, since it is a BDD driven framework, various front-end functionalities can be tested |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesJasmine works with NodeJs to test its back-end components and behaviour |
YesYes back-end behaviour can be tested that is interactions with servers/databases |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
YesBy using 'jasmine-fixture' which can help write specs that interact with the DOM making it easier to injectHTML fixtures |
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. |

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. |

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) |
By using a a plugin called jasmine-ajax that allows ajax calls to be mocked out in tests |
N/A |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesUsing the describe function which is for grouping related tests, typically each test file has one at the top level. |
