General info |
LightBDD is a BDD test framework that allows you to create easy to read and maintainable testsLightBDD 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 |
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. |
NoNo, 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 |
YesYou can test front-end behaviour using lightBDD |
YesFront-end functionality and behaviour can be tested by Testify. |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesYou can test back-end behaviour/functionality using lightBDD |
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 |
YesFixtures are available through the FeatureFixture class. |
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. |
YesGroup fixtures are available in lightBDD through the FeatureFixture class |
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. |
N/A |
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) |
YesMocking is available through the use of third party libraries like moq |
YesIt includes the turtle mock object library |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesYou can group tests into suites |
YesTestify includes support for detecting and running test suites, grouped by modules, classes, or individual test methods. |
