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

	Sleipnir https://github.com/railsware/Sleipnir	RSpec https://rspec.info
Programming language	Swift	Ruby
Category	Unit Testing, Acceptance Testing	Unit Testing, Intergration 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	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.
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	N/A	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.
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 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.
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 You can test server-side behaviour with Rspec
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 RSpec does contain fixture methods
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 Group fixture methods are supported
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 RSpec contains generators for example intergration_'test_name' which will save a spec inside the spec/requests folder
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	MIT License	MIT 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 Available through rspec-mocks gem.
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes You can declare example groups with Slepnir	Yes Allows declaring example groups and contexts.
