Sleipnir vs Goconvey comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between Sleipnir and Goconvey?

	Sleipnir https://github.com/railsware/Sleipnir	Goconvey https://github.com/smartystreets/goconvey
Programming language	Swift	Go
Category	Unit Testing, Acceptance Testing	Regression Testing, Unit Testing
General info	Sleipnir is a BDD-style framework for Swift Sleipnir is a pure Swift BDD testing framework inspired by cedar, that is not dependent on NSObject, and does not use XCTest. Sleipnir has nice command line output and support for custom test reporters and other features, like seeded random tests invocation, focused and excluded examples/groups	BDD style testing framework for Go Goconvey is a two pronged testing tool consisting of a test runner that watches your code for changes, runs 'go test' and renders your results in a web browser and the second a library that allows you to write BDD-style tests with standard 'go test' functions
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	N/A	No
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser	Yes You can test front-end behaviour by defining specifications for classes, objects and functions	Yes Yes, Goconvey can perform front-end tests
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes You can test back-end behaviour by defining specifications for classes, objects and functions in the back-end	Yes Yes one can perform end-to-end HTTP tests with goconvey to see how an application works against remote servers
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	Yes Fixtures are available by using beforeEach{ } and afterEach{ } to setup the test parameters	Yes Yes, Goconvey uses scopes to define fixtures and a reset function for teardown
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 fixtures are available through the beforeAll{} and afterAll{} blocks to setup group fixtures	Yes One can define group fixtures using scopes
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	Yes The web UI has a button to open the built in generator
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	MIT License	Goconvey License
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 Yes, developers can create mock objects with sleipnir using a third party library like Cuckoo.	Yes Using the mock package or mockery library to autogenerate mock code
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes You can declare example groups with Slepnir	Yes Similar to a table driven approach an entire suite can be contained in a single function
