General info |
Kiwi is a Behavior Driven Development library for iOS developmentThe goal behind Kiwi is to provide a BDD library that is simple to setup and use, and create tests that are more readable than what is possible with the bundled test framework. |
A set of golang packages that has many tools for testing Go codeTestify is a Go testing framework that has some great features like easier assertions, Test suite Interfaces, and Mocks |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |
YesKiwi is an xUnit style framework |
No |
Client-side
Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser |
YesYou can test front-end components with kiwi |
YesYes, since it is also easily hooked to 'testing' package it is used to test front-end components |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesYou can test back-end components with kiwi |
YesYes it can also be used to test back-end components and functionality |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
|
N/A |
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. |
Yeskiwi has a beforeEach(aBlock) which is run before every 'it' block in all enclosed contexts. Code that sets up the particular context should go here and afterEach(aBlock) which is run after every it block in all enclosed contexts |
N/A |
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. |
Yesthrough the beforeAll(aBlock) and afterAll(aBlock) functions. |
N/A |

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) |
YesKiwi has inbuilt support for stubs and mocks,including null mocks, class mocks, protocol mocks |
YesIts 'mock' package has a mechanism for easily writing mock objects that are used in place of real objects |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesKiwi uses the block syntax in iOS to define groups of assertions and share setup state between collections of tests |
YesUsing the 'suite' package developers can build a test suite as a struct build teardown and setup methods as well as testing methods on the struct then run them with 'go test' |
