General info |
kotest is a powerful, elegant and flexible test framework for Kotlin, formerly known as kotlintestKotest 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 |
An assertion library for JavaScript (similar to chai.js)It works with any test runner and unit testing framework like Mocha, Jasmine, Karma, protractor (E2E test framework for Angular apps) and QUnit. |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |

Client-side
Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser |
YesYou can test front-end components with kotest |
YesUnit.js runs in the browser to test front-end components |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesYes, you can test back-end components with kotest |
YesUnit.js runs in nodejs to test server-side behaviour |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
Yeskotest contains fixtures, that is the setup / teardown functions |
YesUnit.js provides Test fixtures for running testsThis is one of its features |
