SOAtest vs Intern comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between SOAtest and Intern?

	SOAtest https://www.parasoft.com/products/soatest	Intern https://github.com/theintern/intern
Programming language	JavaScript	JavaScript
Category	Functional Testing, Intergration Testing	Unit Testing, Functional Testing
General info	It's a web based service platform. Script-less REST and SOAP API testing, UI testing, load/performance, and security testing that’s easy to use. Parasoft SOAtest brings artificial intelligence and machine learning to functional testing, to help users test applications with multiple interfaces (UI, REST & SOAP APIs, web services, microservices, and more), simplifying automated end-to-end testing (databases, MQ, JMS, EDI, or even things like Kafka). Unlike any other API testing tool, Parasoft SOAtest mitigates the cost of re-work by proactively adjusting your library of tests as services change.	Intern is minimal test system for JavaScript designed to write and run consistent. Intern is a complete test system for JavaScript designed to help you write and run consistent, high-quality test cases for your JavaScript libraries and applications. Using Intern we can write tests in JavaScript and TypeScript using any style like TDD, and BDD. Intern can run unit tests in most browsers that support ECMAScript
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	No	No
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser	Yes SOAtest is a UI and API testing framework that tests front-end functionality by capturing user interactions directly in the browser without requiring any scripting	Yes Intern is a complete test system for JavaScript It Runs in the browser and can test any front-end component and functionality
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	No	Yes Since it is a complete testing system that can test any type of JavaScript code, it can test server-side behaviour and components as well
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	No	N/A
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.	No	N/A
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.	No
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	N/A	FreeBSD 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)	No	Intern uses the Dojo Toolkit’s AMD loader. To mock, you should be able to just use the standard AMD 'map' feature, else you can use third party libraries like sinon.js
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	No	Yes You can group tests into Suites which may be specified as file paths or using glob expressions, there is typically one top-level suite per module.
