Acceptance Testing |
General info |
Jnario is a test framework for Java focusing on the design and documentation aspects of testingJnario is based on Xtend and consists of two domain-specific languages, one for writing readable acceptance tests, the other for succinct unit tests. Together they are well suited for behavior-driven development of Java programs. |
Robot is a Python framework used for acceptance/functional testingRobot is an automated test framework which has a simple plain text syntax and can be extended easily with Python or Java libraries. It can run on the .net-based IronPython and on Jython which is Java based. |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |
YesIt is an xUnit type testing framework |
No |
Client-side
Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser |
YesYou can write scenarios to test various front-end behaviours using 'Given', 'When', 'Then' steps to describe simple scenarios |
YesRobot has a rich library and can also be easily integrated with Selenium for browser automation to test front-end components |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesYou can write unit tests to test server side behaviours and components using Jnario specs |
YesRobot can be used for back-end tests as well |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
YesIt contains the Setup & Teardown functions similar to JUnit but less verbose |
There is no inbuilt way to work with fixtures in Robot however it can integrate with unittest and use fixtures that way |
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. |
YesThe Setup & Teardown functions can be used as group fixtures. |
By integrating with unittest |
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 |
YesRobot has a library called the Robot Framework Faker library. It contains 147 keywords used for generating random test data |

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) |
YesYou can implement mocking through the use of a third partylibrary like Mockito |
YesRobot can access Python's mock library for mocking |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesJnario Suites allows you to group multiple specifications into suites and execute them together, you do this using the suite wizard |
YesOne can create a test suite with Robot |
