Unit Testing |
General info |
QUnit is a JS Unit testing framework.QUnit is especially useful for regression testing of jQuery, jQuery UI and jQuery Mobile projects |
Unittest2 is a newer version on the inbuilt unit testing framework unittestTo use o use unittest2 instead of unittest, simply replace 'import unittest' with 'import unittest2'. It has many new features such as: - addCleanups for better resource management; -many new assert methods; - assertRaises as context manager, with access to the exception afterwards; - test discovery and new command line options (including failfast and better handling of ctrl-C during test runs); - class and module level fixtures: setUpClass, tearDownClass, setUpModule, tearDownModule; -test skipping and expected failures and many more improvements on the API and bug fixes |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |
YesYes, it is a xUnit style framework |
Yesunittest2 is a newer version of unittest which is an xUnit style framework for Python. |
Client-side
Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser |
YesQUnit is commonly used by jQuery, jQuery UI and jQuery Mobile It can test front-end components and functionality |
YesFront-end functionality and behaviour can be tested by unittest2. function by function |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesQunit can test any JavaScript code(including itself), this includes server-side components and functionality. Supports NodeJs |
YesWe can write tests with unittest2 to test each function for server-side behaviour |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
YesBy using the qunit-fixture element which is a container for some HTML that your tests can assert against. |
YesBy use of the 'setUp()' function which is called to prepare the test fixture |
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. |
YesYou can group fixtures together with QUnit |
Yesunittest2 allows you to group your initialization code buy use of the 'setUp()' function and clean up code with a 'tearDown()' function |
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. |
|
Yesunittest2 contains generator methods in the module 'unittest.TestCase' |

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) |
You can use third party libraries like jQuery's Mockjax plugin |
YesMocks are available from the library unittest.mock which allows you to replace parts of your system under test with mock objects |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesYou can use the QUnit.module() function to group tests together |
YesOne can build suites either manually or use test discovery to build the suite automatically by scanning a directory |
