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

	Jnario http://jnario.org/	TwistedTrial https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/wiki/TwistedTrial
Programming language	Java	Python
Category	Acceptance Testing, Unit Testing	Unit Testing, unittest Extensions
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.	Trial is a unit testing framework for Python built by Twisted Matrix labs Trial is composed of two parts: First is a command-line test runner, which can be run on plain Python unit tests and can do automated unit-test discovery across files, modules, or even arbitrarily nested packages. Second is a test library, derived from Python's 'unittest.TestCase'
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	Yes Front-end components can be tested for example adding a web front-end using simple twisted.web.resource.Resource objects
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 Server-side behaviour can be tested with Trial, it has various functions for this in the twisted.web.Resource package
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	Yes Trial supports various fixture methods such as 'setUp()' and 'tearDown' functions fixture for normal semantics of setup, and teardown
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.	Yes Methods like 'setUp()' allow for creation of 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.	N/A	Through use of third party libraries like test-generator.
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 Trial can access the mock library inbuilt in python for mocking purposes
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 Trial allows tests to be grouped into test packages
