JDave vs Hound comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between JDave and Hound?

	JDave http://jdave.org/	Hound https://github.com/HashNuke/hound
Programming language	Java	Elixir
Category	Acceptance Testing	Browser Automation, Intergration Testing
General info	JDave is a BDD framework for Java JDave is inspired by RSpec and integrates JMock 2 as mocking framework and Hamcrest as matching library. It uses JUnit adapter to launch JDave specifications. This way it is possible to have IDE, build tool and coverage tool support from day one.	Elixir library for browser automation and writing intergration tests It is a front-end testing library that has support for: Selenium (Firefox, Chrome), ChromeDriver and PhantomJs. Also supports JavaScript applications and retries tests a few times before reporting errors
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 Front-end behaviour can be tested with JDave	Yes Allows for browser Automation and writing of end-to-end tests for web apps, supports Selenium WebDriver, ChromeDriver, and PhantomJS - GhostDriver
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes JDave can test server-side behaviour	N/A
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	N/A	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.	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.	N/A	Yes Not inbuilt but by use of a third party library like ExopData
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	Apache License 2.0	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)	Yes It integrates JMock 2 as mocking framework	Yes Yes, through the use of a third party library like Mockery
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes Specifications can be grouped by tagging them with @Group annotation.	N/A
