General info |
PHPUnit is a unit testing framework for the PHP programming languagePHPUnit is a programmer-oriented testing framework and is an instance of the xUnit architecture for unit testing frameworks. |
MSTest is a Unit testing framework for the .net frameworkMSTest is fully integrated with Visual Studios and works natively without the need for any plugins. MSTest is better suited for only using Microsoft technologies rather than mixed technology environments. |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |
YesIt's an instance of the xUnit architecture for unit testing frameworks |
YesMsTest is an xUnit type framework |
Client-side
Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser |
YesIt can perform Unit tests and can test various front-end components and behaviours |
YesMsTest can test various front-end components |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesBy performing unit tests on singular back-end components |
YesWith MSTest you can test various back-end components individually |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
YesBy use of a setup code. The setup code consists of two Important template functions, the 'setUp()' function (called to create the objects to be tested) and 'tearDown()' function (called to cleanup the objects which you tested) |
YesMSTest contains fixture methods TestInitialize to setup your environment and TestCleanup to destroy the test environment |
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. |
YesIt does support group fixtures |
YesGroup fixtures are available |
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) |
YesOne of its main features is that PHPUnit comes with out of the box support for Mock objects |
YesYou can create mock objects using the third party library moq |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesIt allows grouping of tests and by using the @group annotation one can tag a test to belong to one or more groups |
YesGrouping of tests into suites is possible with MSTest |
