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. |
TickSpec is a lightweight Behaviour Driven Development (BDD) framework for .NetWith TickSpeck you can describe behaviour in plain text using the Gherkin business language, execute the behaviour against matching F# 'ticked' methods, or attribute-tagged C# or F# methods, run via your normal test runners or plugins and set breakpoints in the scenarios, step definitions or your code and go (setting breakpoints in the Gherkin is currently not supported in .NET Standard version) |
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 |
YesYou can test front-end behaviour by creating feature specifications for front-end behaviour |
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 back-end code by creating feature 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 |
YesNUnit contains the fixture methods SetUp to initialize your test environment and TearDown method to destroy a test environment |
YesFixtures are available or are derived from the class FeatureFixture |
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 |
YesTickSpec contains 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 |
YesBy using a third party mocking library like moq |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesYou can group tests into suites with NUnit |
YesYou can create test suites with TickSpec |
