Unit Testing |
General info |
SimpleTest is a unit test and web test framework for PHPIt has JWebUnit style functionality and support for SSL, forms, frames, proxies and basic authentication |
MSTest is a Unit testing framework for the .net frameworkMSTest 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 |
YesMsTest is an xUnit type framework |
Client-side
Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser |
YesWith SimpleTest common but fiddly PHP tasks, such as logging into a site, can be tested easily |
YesMsTest can test various front-end components |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesServer-side behaviour can be tested by writing simple unit tests to test functionality and behaviour of single components. |
YesWith 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 |
YesIt can import fixtures using a mixin like 'given()' method |
YesMSTest 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. |
YesIt allows grouping of fixtures |
YesGroup 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. |
YesSimpletest has support for generators |

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) |
YesIt allows for one to build Mock objects.To create a mock version of a class we need to include the mock object library and run the generator. This will create a clone class which we use to create new instances(objects) in our test cases. |
YesYou can create mock objects using the third party library moq |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesThere are several ways of grouping tests; one is to simply place multiple test cases into a single file, another is to mark any base test cases that should not be run as abstract, Simpletest gives you a couple of options |
YesGrouping of tests into suites is possible with MSTest |
