RSpec vs TickSpec comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between RSpec and TickSpec?

	RSpec https://rspec.info	TickSpec https://github.com/fsprojects/TickSpec
Programming language	Ruby	.NET
Category	Unit Testing, Intergration Testing	Acceptance Testing
General info	Domain Specific Language (DSL) testing solution for Ruby code It focuses on empowering Test Driven Development (TDD). RSpec contains multiple smaller libraries, which may be independently used with other testing frameworks.	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 Yes, but it differs from more traiditional xUnit solutions. Its tests are written in a "Tests as Specification" manner. This means that the terminology used in RSpec is adjusted to a language more fitting for specification.	No
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser	Yes RSpec is used to primarily test the behaviour of applications or individual components so it can test front-end behaviour as well - you can use capybara gem with RSpec for that.	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 server-side behaviour with Rspec	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	Yes RSpec does contain fixture methods	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.	Yes Group fixture methods are supported	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.	Yes RSpec contains generators for example intergration_'test_name' which will save a spec inside the spec/requests folder	N/A
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	MIT License	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 Available through rspec-mocks gem.	Yes By using a third party mocking library like moq
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes Allows declaring example groups and contexts.	Yes You can create test suites with TickSpec
