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

	JSSpec https://github.com/jsspec/jsspec	Spinach https://github.com/codegram/spinach
Programming language	JavaScript	Ruby
Category	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	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.	No	No
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	N/A
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	No	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	N/A	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.	N/A	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	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 Spinach can access the rspec-mocks methods
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	N/A	Yes Spinach Integrates with your RSpec test suite which allows declaring example groups and contexts.
