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

	PHPSpec https://www.phpspec.net/en/stable/	Lettuce https://pypi.org/project/lettuce/
Programming language	PHP	Python
Category	Unit Testing	Unit Testing, Acceptance 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	Lettuce is a BDD testing tool for Python Lettuce is a testing tool for Python which is inspired by Ruby's Cucumber that supports Gherkin. It can execute plain-text functional descriptions as automated tests for Python projects just like Cucumber does for Ruby
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	No	No However It can generate xml results for behaviour tests xUnit style
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 By integrating Lettuce with Selenium’s Python bindings, you have a robust framework for testing Django applications. It can test front-end behaviour
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 Lettuce can test various server and database behaviours and interactions
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	N/A
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	N/A
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	Yes By using a third party library
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	Free	Unknown
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	By adding the lettuce-tools library one has access to the Mock module to implement a configurable http REST mock.
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	In PHPspec, you can group specification files by a certain namespace in a suite	Yes It allows grouping of tests
