General info |
JasUnit is a slim unit testing framework for JavaScript, following the general design principles of xUnit.For testing your code, JasUnit allows you to: Create test fixtures with any number of test methods; Implement setup() and teardown() methods which are run before and after each test; Specify a namespace for a fixture for easy organisation of tests; Use the default or custom logger (default appends results to a given element); Use assertions from any scope - this isn't necessary or even really advised, but some people prefer it. |
Futuristic, new, fast and concurrent JavaScript test runner with simple test syntaxAVA is a test runner for Node.js with a concise API, detailed error output. JS is a single-threaded but Node.JS is a parallel due to it's async behaviour. Ava leverages that and it can run tests concurrently |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |
YesJasUnit follows the general design principles o xUnit |
NoHowever Ava supports the TAP format which allows us to use the tap-xunit reporter to produce xUnit (JUnit) XML |
Client-side
Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser |
YesJasUnit is primarily used to test front-end code and functionality |
YesYou can write tests for the DOM with Ava, testing front-end components is easy with Ava |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
No |
YesAva utilizes the async I/O nature of Node and runs concurrent tests on NodeJs applications' back-endsA node server can have its endpoints tested with Ava |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
YesWith JasUnit you can Create test fixtures with any number of test methods Implement setup() and teardown() methods which are run before and after each test |
YesUsing Ava's ava-fixture library it supports fixtures |
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. |
YesJasUnit allow you to create group fixtures |
YesAva has support for group fixtures |
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) |
YesIt provides inbuilt Mocking capabilities |
AVA has no mocking built in, to mock functions you can use third party libraries like Sinon.js. |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
N/A |
NoThere is no support for grouping tests |
