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

	Lettuce https://pypi.org/project/lettuce/	Espec https://github.com/antonmi/espec
Programming language	Python	Elixir
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	BDD driven testing framework for Elixir It is a testing framework written from scratch which is inspired by RSpec and the main idea is to close to its perfect DSL (Domain Specific Language)
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	Yes Front-end components can be tested; there is also espec_phoenix for the Phoenix web framework
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes Lettuce can test various server and database behaviours and interactions	Yes databases and server behaviour can be tested using Espec
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	N/A	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.	N/A	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.	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.	Yes It has a Built-in mocking functionality on top of Erlang 'meck' library
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes It allows grouping of tests	Yes By use of context blocksand tags functions
