Unit Testing |
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. |
Kahlan is a full-featured BDD testing frameworkIt is a full-featured BDD testing framework that embraces the KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid) design principle. Kahlan makes it possible to write unit tests using the 'describe-it' syntax and requires at least PHP 5.5 |
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 |
YesKahlan allows you to test front-end components and behaviour easily |
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 |
YesYou can test individual back-end components using Kahlan |
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 |
YesFixtures can be defined by use of 'setUp()'method and cleaned using the 'tearDown()'method |
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 |
YesYou can write 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 |
YesWith Kahlan's stubbing system you are able to set stubs (like mocks) directly to your class methods (dynamic mocking) |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesYou can group tests into suites with NUnit |
YesKahlan allows you to group tests syntactically using a closure syntax. It has describe and context methods for grouping |
