Functional Testing, Asynchronous 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 |
Vows is a testing framework for NodeJS applications. Vows supports Asynchronous BDD & continuous testing for two reasons first, reason is that node.js is asynchronous, and therefore our tests need to be, second,is to make test suites which target I/O libraries run much faster. |

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 |
No
|
|
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
No
|
Yes Since it specifically tests Nodejs it tests back-end components and other server-side behaviours and functions |
|
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. |

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 |
|
|
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
