JSSpec vs Sleipnir comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between JSSpec and Sleipnir?

	JSSpec https://github.com/jsspec/jsspec	Sleipnir https://github.com/railsware/Sleipnir
Programming language	JavaScript	Swift
Category	Unit Testing	Unit Testing, Acceptance Testing
General info	Javascript BDD (Behaviour Driven Development) based test runner/framework Contextualised spec runner for JavaScript in the flavour of RSpec (Ruby Spec runner). JSSpec has got 2 really powerful features which helps you to make unit testing easier: 1) Shared examples 2) Shared contexts	Sleipnir is a BDD-style framework for Swift Sleipnir is a pure Swift BDD testing framework inspired by cedar, that is not dependent on NSObject, and does not use XCTest. Sleipnir has nice command line output and support for custom test reporters and other features, like seeded random tests invocation, focused and excluded examples/groups
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	No	N/A
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser	Yes JSSpec is primarily used for testing front-end/client-side components and functionality	Yes You can test front-end behaviour by defining specifications for classes, objects and functions
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	No	Yes You can test back-end behaviour by defining specifications for classes, objects and functions in the back-end
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	N/A	Yes Fixtures are available by using beforeEach{ } and afterEach{ } to setup the test parameters
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	Yes Group fixtures are available through the beforeAll{} and afterAll{} blocks to setup 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	N/A
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	N/A	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 has a module doubles (mocks/spies) for mocking and spying	Yes Yes, developers can create mock objects with sleipnir using a third party library like Cuckoo.
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	N/A	Yes You can declare example groups with Slepnir
