Jasmine vs unittest comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between Jasmine and unittest?

	Jasmine https://github.com/jasmine/jasmine	unittest https://docs.Python.org/3/library/unittest.html
Programming language	JavaScript	Python
Category	Unit Testing, End-to-End Testing	Unit Testing
General info	JS Unit test framework, BDD based for Node.JS applications used with Angular.JS web applications and also paired with 'Karma' task runner It'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	unittest is a unit testing framework for Python The unittest test framework is Python’s xUnit style framework. It is a standard module that is bundled with Python and supports the automation and aggregation of tests and common setup and shutdown code for them.
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	No	Yes unittest is a xUnit style frameworkfor Python, it was previously called PyUnit.
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser	Yes Jasmine works well in and with browsers to test client-side components and functionality	Yes Front-end functionality and behaviour can be tested by unittest.
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes Jasmine works with NodeJs to test its back-end components and behaviour	Yes Since the webserver funtionalities have their own features and each feature has its own functions, we can write tests with unittest to test each function
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	Yes By using 'jasmine-fixture' which can help write specs that interact with the DOM making it easier to injectHTML fixtures	Yes By use of the 'setUp()' function which is called to prepare the test 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.	N/A	Yes unittest allows you to group your initialization code into a setUp function and clean up code in a tearDown function
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.	N/A	Yes unittest contains generator methods in the module 'unittest.TestCase'
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	MIT License	MIT 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)	By using a a plugin called jasmine-ajax that allows ajax calls to be mocked out in tests	Yes Mocks are available from the library unittest.mock which allows you to replace parts of your system under test with mock objects
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes Using the describe function which is for grouping related tests, typically each test file has one at the top level.	Yes One can build suites either manually or use test discovery to build the suite automatically by scanning a directory
