Randoop.NET vs TickSpec comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between Randoop.NET and TickSpec?

	Randoop.NET https://github.com/abb-iss/Randoop.NET	TickSpec https://github.com/fsprojects/TickSpec
Programming language	.NET	.NET
Category	Unit Testing	Acceptance Testing
General info	Randoop.NET is an API fuzzing unit test generator for .NET libraries. Randoop.NET creates test cases by a sequence of API method calls and it improves on random and static test generation by incorporating feedback during test generation.	TickSpec is a lightweight Behaviour Driven Development (BDD) framework for .Net With TickSpeck you can describe behaviour in plain text using the Gherkin business language, execute the behaviour against matching F# 'ticked' methods, or attribute-tagged C# or F# methods, run via your normal test runners or plugins and set breakpoints in the scenarios, step definitions or your code and go (setting breakpoints in the Gherkin is currently not supported in .NET Standard version)
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	Yes Randoop.net is an xUnit style testing framework	No
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser	Yes You can test front-end components by testing individual front-end classes and modules	Yes You can test front-end behaviour by creating feature specifications for front-end behaviour
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes You can test back-end components by testing individual back-end classes and modules	Yes You can test back-end code by creating feature specifications to test back-end behaviour
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	N/A	Yes Fixtures are available or are derived from the class FeatureFixture
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.	N/A	Yes TickSpec contains 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.	N/A	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)	N/A	Yes By using a third party mocking library like moq
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes You can generate test suites with Randoop	Yes You can create test suites with TickSpec
