Quick vs Vows comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between Quick and Vows?

	Quick https://github.com/quick/quick	Vows http://vowsjs.org/
Programming language	Swift	JavaScript
Category	Acceptance Testing, Unit Testing	Functional Testing, Asynchronous Testing
General info	Quick is a Swift (and Objective-C) testing framework. Quick is a behavior-driven development framework for Swift and Objective-C that is inspired by RSpec, Specta, and Ginkgo. Quick comes bundled with Nimble a matcher framework for your tests.	Vows is a testing framework for NodeJS applications. Vows supports Asynchronous BDD & continuous testing for two reasons first, reason is that node.js is asynchronous, and therefore our tests need to be, second,is to make test suites which target I/O libraries run much faster.
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	Yes Yes, it is an xUnit style test framework	No
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser	Yes Developers can test front-end behaviour and components by defining front-end feature specifications	No
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes Developers can test back-end behaviour and components by defining back-end feature specifications	Yes Since it specifically tests Nodejs it tests back-end components and other server-side behaviours and functions
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	Yes Quick contains fixture methods setup() and teardown() for setting up and destroying test environments	No
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 Yes, example groups (logical groupings of examples/tests) can share setup and teardown code	No
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.	N/A
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	Apache License 2.0	Apache License 2.0
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 Yes, developers can create mock objects with Quick using the Cuckoo library
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes In Quick test suites are named Specs, and every test suite you create starts off with a class inheriting from QuickSpec includes a main method, spec() which contains all the test cases.
