What are the differences between Shoulda and MSTest?

	Shoulda https://github.com/thoughtbot/shoulda	MSTest https://github.com/microsoft/testfx-docs
Programming language	Ruby	.NET
Category		Unit Testing
General info	Meta gem containing Shoulda Context and Shoulda Matchers Shoulda contains two other gems: Should Context and Shoulda Matchers. Should Context allows better naming and grouping of your tests. Shoulda Matchers provides a set of "matchers", i.e. methods that allow you to write much more concise assertions.	MSTest is a Unit testing framework for the .net framework MSTest 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.	No	Yes MsTest is an xUnit type framework
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser	N/A	Yes MsTest can test various front-end components
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	N/A	Yes With 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	N/A	Yes MSTest 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.	N/A	Yes Group 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.	N/A	N/A

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 You can create mock objects using the third party library moq
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes	Yes Grouping of tests into suites is possible with MSTest
Other Other useful information about the testing framework	Shoulda Context is compatible with Minitest and Test::Unit. Shoulda Matchers is compatible with RSpec and Minitest.
