General info |
JUnit is an open source Unit testing framework for javaJUnit is useful for developers to write and run repeatable tests. JUnit has been crucial in the development of test driven development and is partof the xUnit family of unit testing frameworks |
Quick is a Swift (and Objective-C) testing framework.Quick is a behavior-driven development framework for Swift and Objective-C that is inspired by RSpec, Specta, and Ginkgo. Quick comes bundled with Nimble a matcher framework for your tests. |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |
YesIt is an instance of the xUnit architecture for unit testing frameworks. |
YesYes, it is an xUnit style test framework |
Client-side
Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser |
YesYou can test front-end components such as individual classes and functions that create the front-end |
YesDevelopers can test front-end behaviour and components by defining front-end feature specifications |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesYou can test classes and functions that compose the back-end such as database connections and so on |
YesDevelopers can test back-end behaviour and components by defining back-end feature specifications |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
YesJUnit contains a setUp() method, which runs before every test invocation and a tearDown() method, which runs after every test method. |
YesQuick contains fixture methods setup() and teardown() for setting up and destroying test environments |
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. |
YesYou can use setUp() and tearDown() inbuilt functions as group fixtures. |
YesYes, example groups (logical groupings of examples/tests) can share setup and teardown code |
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. |
You can use JUnit-quickcheck to generate test data |

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) |
JUnit does not support mocking internally but you can use a mock framework like Mockito to generate mock objects. |
YesYes, developers can create mock objects with Quick using the Cuckoo library |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesIn JUnit you can create a test suite that bundles a few unit test cases and runs them together. You use both @RunWith and @Suite annotation are used to run the suite test. |
YesIn Quick test suites are named Specs, and every test suite you create starts off with a class inheriting from QuickSpec includes a main method, spec() which contains all the test cases. |
