Category	Acceptance Testing	Acceptance Testing
General info	LightBDD is a BDD test framework that allows you to create easy to read and maintainable tests LightBDD is a BDD test framework offering ability to write tests that are easy to read, easy to track during execution and are summarized in user friendly reports. It also allows developers to use all of the standard development tools to maintain them	Spinach is a BDD framework on top of Gherkin Spinach is a high-level BDD framework that leverages the Gherkin language to help define executable specifications of your application or library's acceptance criteria.
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	No No, but it is Integrated with xUnit frameworkslike NUnit, xUnit, MsTest.TestFramework and Fixie.	No
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser	Yes You can test front-end behaviour using lightBDD	N/A
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes You can test back-end behaviour/functionality using lightBDD	Yes You can test any server-side behaviour with Spinach
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	Yes Fixtures are available through the FeatureFixture class.	No
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.	Yes Group fixtures are available in lightBDD through the FeatureFixture class	No
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.	N/A	Yes Spinach has inbuilt generator methods
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	Proprietary License	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)	Yes Mocking is available through the use of third party libraries like moq	Yes Spinach can access the rspec-mocks methods
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes You can group tests into suites	Yes Spinach Integrates with your RSpec test suite which allows declaring example groups and contexts.
