Lettuce vs Doctest comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between Lettuce and Doctest?

	Lettuce https://pypi.org/project/lettuce/	Doctest https://docs.Python.org/2/library/doctest.html
Programming language	Python	Python
Category	Unit Testing, Acceptance Testing	Unit Testing
General info	Lettuce is a BDD testing tool for Python Lettuce is a testing tool for Python which is inspired by Ruby's Cucumber that supports Gherkin. It can execute plain-text functional descriptions as automated tests for Python projects just like Cucumber does for Ruby	Doctest is an inbuilt test framework for Python Doctest is a test framework that comes prepackaged with Python. It is a simple library with a functionality that makes it possible to search for pieces of text that look like interactive Python sessions and executes these sessions to see if they work exactly as shown.
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	No However It can generate xml results for behaviour tests xUnit style	No
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser	Yes By integrating Lettuce with Selenium’s Python bindings, you have a robust framework for testing Django applications. It can test front-end behaviour
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes Lettuce can test various server and database behaviours and interactions
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 Lacks fixture management which can make writing tests harder
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 Lacks fixture management
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.	Yes By using a third party library	N/A
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	Unknown	MIT License
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)	By adding the lettuce-tools library one has access to the Mock module to implement a configurable http REST mock.	A good external library for using Mocks with Doctest is minimocks
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes It allows grouping of tests	Yes One can group tests
