NBi vs Guage comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between NBi and Guage?

	NBi http://www.nbi.io/	Guage https://gauge.org/
Programming language	.NET	.NET
Category	Integration Testing, Unit Testing, Acceptance Testing	Acceptance Testing
General info	NBi is an open-source framework for testing Business Intelligence solutions or validating data quality. NBi helps you to create tests targeting your databases, cubes, etls and reports. Tests are written in xml using an intuitive syntax therefore thereis no need of any development language. Nbi tests target databases, cubes, etls and reports	Gauge is a light-weight cross-platform test automation tool for writing acceptance tests. Gauge is a free and open source framework for writing and running acceptance tests. Some of its key features include: -Simple, flexible and rich syntax based on Markdown.; -Consistent cross platform/language support for writing test code.; -A modular architecture with plugins support.
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	No	No
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser	No	Yes You can test front-end behaviour by creating testing specifications to test front-end behaviour
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes Nbi tests Business intelligence software which retrieve, analyze, transform and report data therefore it targets databases, cubes, etls and reports and you can natively connect to any database supporting OleDb or ODBC connection	Yes You can test back-end behaviour by creating testing specifications to test back-end behaviour
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	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.	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	N/A
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	Apache License 2.0	GNU General Public License v3.0
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 You can create your own mock objects	Yes You can create mocks using third party libraries like moq
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes Yes, Nbi comes with a solution to automate, as much as possible, the creation of the test-suites through its user interface, named GenBI	Yes You can create test suites with Gauge which can be run using multiple parameters.
