PHPSpec vs Jnario comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between PHPSpec and Jnario?

	PHPSpec https://www.phpspec.net/en/stable/	Jnario http://jnario.org/
Programming language	PHP	Java
Category	Unit Testing	Acceptance Testing, Unit Testing
General info	PhpSpec is a testing tool based on the concept of emergent design using specification PhpSpec is a tool to use at the spec level or SpecBDD, a type of BDD; It's process generates code for you and guides you through the SpecBDD process through the command line	Jnario is a test framework for Java focusing on the design and documentation aspects of testing Jnario 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	Yes It is an xUnit type testing framework
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser	Yes By testing your PHP classes that run your front-end	Yes You 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	Yes You can use PHPSpec to test your PHP classes that run your back-end	Yes You 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	Yes You can define fixtures	Yes It 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.	Yes You can define group fixtures	Yes The 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.	Yes There are methods that act as generators	N/A
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	Free	Eclipse Public License v1.0
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 It has built in support for Mocks	Yes You can implement mocking through the use of a third partylibrary like Mockito
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	In PHPspec, you can group specification files by a certain namespace in a suite	Yes Jnario Suites allows you to group multiple specifications into suites and execute them together, you do this using the suite wizard
