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 |
A Python unit testing framework modelled after unittestTestify is modelled after unittest but has more features while still supporting unittest classes. It has more pythonic naming conventions, an better test runner output visually, a decorator-based approach to fixture methods among many other features |
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 |
YesFront-end functionality and behaviour can be tested by Testify. |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesLettuce can test various server and database behaviours and interactions |
YesTestify can test various server and database behaviours and functionality |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
N/A |
YesFixture methods are supported and it follows a decorator based approach, that is they are written similar to decorators |
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 |
YesGroup fixtures are supported |
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 |
YesOne can create generator methods to yield runnable test methods which will pick out the test methods from your TestCases, and then exclude any in any of your exclude_suites method.If there are any require_suites, it will then further limit itself to test methods in those suites. |

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 includes the turtle mock object library |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesIt allows grouping of tests |
YesTestify includes support for detecting and running test suites, grouped by modules, classes, or individual test methods. |
