General info |
NUnit is an open-source unit testing framework for Microsoft .NET.NUnit was Initially ported from JUnit. Tests can be run from a console runner, within Visual Studio through a Test Adapter or through 3rd party runners. Tests can be run in parallel and has Strong support for data driven tests. Unit supports multiple platforms including .NET Core, Xamarin Mobile, Compact Framework and Silverlight. |
Codeception is a full-stack testing framework for PHPIt is inspired by BDD and provides a way of writing acceptance, functional and even unit tests. It is powered by PHPUnit. |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |
YesNunit is one of many programs in the xUnit family |
No |
Client-side
Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser |
YesYou can test front-end components with NUnit since it is a Unit testing framework the application is isolated into diverse modules which are tested independently |
YesOne is able to write acceptance tests which are used to look at functionality from a user's perspective. It is able to look at pages in browser (Chrome, Firefox or PhpBrowser) |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesYou can test back-end components with NUnit, it is a Unit testing framework hence the application is isolated into diverse modules which are tested independently |
YesIt supports back-end tests, by writing functionaltests one can be able to test server behaviour |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
YesNUnit contains the fixture methods SetUp to initialize your test environment and TearDown method to destroy a test environment |
YesOne can define a fixture and write the test with Codedeception, use the yii2-codedeceptionextention which will autoload fixtures for you |
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 NUnit |
YesOne can define 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. |

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) |
YesYou can create mock objects using the third party library moq |
YesCodeception provides Codeception\Stub library for building mocks and stubs for tests |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesYou can group tests into suites with NUnit |
YesCodeception consists of three so-called “suites”: A “unit suite” for all unit tests, a “functional suite” for all functional tests, and an “acceptance suite” for all acceptance tests. |
