General info	kotest is a powerful, elegant and flexible test framework for Kotlin, formerly known as kotlintest Kotest has excellent support for data driven testing or table driven testing where it has the ability to quickly rerun the same test over and over with a predefined set of inputs and expected values	Rich testing framework for Go Gocheck is a richer testing framework for Golang libraries and applications that includes checkers and assertions among many other features, it also works as an extension to the testing package and 'go test'
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 You can test front-end components with kotest	Yes Yes, supports end-to-end testing so various front-end components can be tested
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes Yes, you can test back-end components with kotest	Yes Yes end-to-end testing means that various back-end components and behaviour can be tested
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	Yes kotest contains fixtures, that is the setup / teardown functions	Yes Fixtures are available with Gocheck either per suite and/or per setup and teardown
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.	Yes kotest has group fixtures available	Yes Group fixtures are available as a suite
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

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 You can use a third party library like mockk to create mocks	Yes Through third party libraries like gomock
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes You can create test suites with kotest	Yes When testing, developers can create suites of tests
