General info |
Nose is a Python unit test frameworkThis is a Python unit test framework that intergrates well with doctests, unnittests, and 'no-boilerplate tests', that is tests written from scratch without a specific boilerplate. |
Jnario is a test framework for Java focusing on the design and documentation aspects of testingJnario is based on Xtend and consists of two domain-specific languages, one for writing readable acceptance tests, the other for succinct unit tests. Together they are well suited for behavior-driven development of Java programs. |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |
No |
YesIt is an xUnit type testing framework |
Client-side
Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser |
Yesnose is a unit testing tool which is very similar to unittest. It is basically unittest with extensions therefore just like unittest is can test front-end components and behaviour |
YesYou can write scenarios to test various front-end behaviours using 'Given', 'When', 'Then' steps to describe simple scenarios |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesNose can test back-end components and functionality as small units. One can write tests for each function that provides back-end functionality |
YesYou can write unit tests to test server side behaviours and components using Jnario specs |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
Yesnose supports fixtures at the package, module, class, and test case levels, so that initialization which can be expensive is done as infrequently as possible. |
YesIt contains the Setup & Teardown functions similar to JUnit but less verbose |
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 allowed with nose, where a multitest state can be defined. |
YesThe Setup & Teardown functions can be used as group fixtures. |
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. |
Through use of third party libraries like test-generator and from the 'unittest.TestCase' library |

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) |
YesThe nose library extends the built-in Python unittest module therefore has access to unittest.mock |
YesYou can implement mocking through the use of a third partylibrary like Mockito |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesWith nose it collects tests automatically and there’s no need to manually collect test cases into test suites. |
YesJnario Suites allows you to group multiple specifications into suites and execute them together, you do this using the suite wizard |
