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 |
go test is an inbuilt tool/command for conducting automated tests in Golang while testing is the inbuilt testing libraryTesting is the package that is shipped with go and combines with the go test command to provide a minimal but complete testing experience |
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. |
NoHowever there are Plugins such as https://github.com/tebeka/go2xunitto convert the output of Go testing library into xUnit format |
Client-side
Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser |
YesYou can test front-end behaviour using lightBDD |
YesYes it can be used effectively for front-end testing |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesYou can test back-end behaviour/functionality using lightBDD |
YesYes, it is used by developers for end-to-end testing so the back-end can be tested easily as well |
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. |
YesYes it's straightforward in that first when you run 'go test' for packages in the scope the test will be executed with its working directory set to the source directory of the package being tested. Second the 'go test' tool will ignore any directory in your $GOPATH that starts with the word 'testdata' , starts with a period or an underscore |
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 can be done following a similar procedure as a single fixture |
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 |
YesThey are available by importing a package called 'gotests' (https://github.com/cweill/gotests) |

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 |
YesBy use of a third party library GoMock which intergrates well with the testing library |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesYou can group tests into suites |
YesThe short answer is yes, by use of table tests which are a great way of performing multiple I/O tests on a function or behaviour with minimal code |
