General info |
Lettuce is a BDD testing tool for PythonLettuce 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 |
PhpSpec is a testing tool based on the concept of emergent design using specificationPhpSpec is a tool to use at the spec level or SpecBDD, a type of BDD; It's process generates code for you and guides you through the SpecBDD process through the command line |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |
NoHowever 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 |
YesBy integrating Lettuce with Selenium’s Python bindings, you have a robust framework for testing Django applications. It can test front-end behaviour |
YesBy testing your PHP classes that run your front-end |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesLettuce can test various server and database behaviours and interactions |
YesYou can use PHPSpec to test your PHP classes that run your back-end |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
N/A |
YesYou can define fixtures |
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 |
YesYou can define group fixtures |
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. |
YesBy using a third party library |
YesThere are methods that act as generators |
Licence
Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software |
Unknown |
Free |
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. |
YesIt has built in support for Mocks |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesIt allows grouping of tests |
In PHPspec, you can group specification files by a certain namespace in a suite |
