Jnario vs Spinach comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between Jnario and Spinach?

	Jnario http://jnario.org/	Spinach https://github.com/codegram/spinach
Programming language	Java	Ruby
Category	Acceptance Testing, Unit Testing	Acceptance Testing
General info	Jnario is a test framework for Java focusing on the design and documentation aspects of testing Jnario 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.	Spinach is a BDD framework on top of Gherkin Spinach is a high-level BDD framework that leverages the Gherkin language to help define executable specifications of your application or library's acceptance criteria.
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	Yes It is an xUnit type testing framework	No
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser	Yes You can write scenarios to test various front-end behaviours using 'Given', 'When', 'Then' steps to describe simple scenarios	N/A
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes You can write unit tests to test server side behaviours and components using Jnario specs	Yes You can test any server-side behaviour with Spinach
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	Yes It contains the Setup & Teardown functions similar to JUnit but less verbose	No
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.	Yes The Setup & Teardown functions can be used as group fixtures.	No
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 Spinach has inbuilt generator methods
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	Eclipse Public License v1.0	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 You can implement mocking through the use of a third partylibrary like Mockito	Yes Spinach can access the rspec-mocks methods
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes Jnario Suites allows you to group multiple specifications into suites and execute them together, you do this using the suite wizard	Yes Spinach Integrates with your RSpec test suite which allows declaring example groups and contexts.
