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. |
Standalone test stubs and mocks for JavaScript. Works with any unit testing framework.Sinon.js is a great library when you want to unit test your code with supports spies, stubs, and mocks. The library has cross browser support and also can run on the server using Node.js. |
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 |
YesCompatible |
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 |
YesSinon.js is a good library for unit testing your front-end code and has cross browser support |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
No |
YesSinon.js can run on node.js to test back-end components and server-side behaviour |
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 |

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 |
|
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 |
YesSinonJS is basically a library that we can use to create object mocks for unit testing |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
