Nose vs LightBDD comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between Nose and LightBDD?

	Nose https://nose.readthedocs.io/en/latest/	LightBDD https://github.com/LightBDD/LightBDD
Programming language	Python	.NET
Category	Unit Testing, unittest Extensions	Acceptance Testing
General info	Nose is a Python unit test framework This 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.	LightBDD is a BDD test framework that allows you to create easy to read and maintainable tests LightBDD 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
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	No	No No, but it is Integrated with xUnit frameworkslike NUnit, xUnit, MsTest.TestFramework and Fixie.
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser	Yes nose 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	Yes You can test front-end behaviour using lightBDD
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes Nose can test back-end components and functionality as small units. One can write tests for each function that provides back-end functionality	Yes You can test back-end behaviour/functionality using lightBDD
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	Yes nose supports fixtures at the package, module, class, and test case levels, so that initialization which can be expensive is done as infrequently as possible.	Yes Fixtures are available through the FeatureFixture class.
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.	Yes Group fixtures are allowed with nose, where a multitest state can be defined.	Yes Group fixtures are available in lightBDD through the FeatureFixture class
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	N/A
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	GNU Library or Lesser General Public License (LGPL) (GNU LGPL)	Proprietary License
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 The nose library extends the built-in Python unittest module therefore has access to unittest.mock	Yes Mocking is available through the use of third party libraries like moq
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes With nose it collects tests automatically and there’s no need to manually collect test cases into test suites.	Yes You can group tests into suites
