General info |
Complete suite of testing facilitiesMinitest is small, fast, and it aims to make tests clean and readable. It supports test-driven development (TDD), behavior-driven development (BDD), mocking, and benchmarking. |
A set of golang packages that has many tools for testing Go codeTestify is a Go testing framework that has some great features like easier assertions, Test suite Interfaces, and Mocks |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |
YesMiniTest is an xUnit style framework in that is has assertion functions in the style of xUnit/TDD |
No |
Client-side
Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser |
No |
YesYes, since it is also easily hooked to 'testing' package it is used to test front-end components |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesYou can test various back-end components |
YesYes it can also be used to test back-end components and functionality |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
YesMinitest supports test fixture functions |
N/A |
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. |
YesMinitest has group fixtures |
N/A |
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. |

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 Minitest::Mock class which is a simple and clean mock object framework |
YesIts 'mock' package has a mechanism for easily writing mock objects that are used in place of real objects |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesAllows grouping by nested Ruby classes. RSpec-like "context" method is available for spec syntax through the minitest-spec-context extension gem |
YesUsing the 'suite' package developers can build a test suite as a struct build teardown and setup methods as well as testing methods on the struct then run them with 'go test' |
