SpecFlow vs Arquillian comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between SpecFlow and Arquillian?

	SpecFlow https://specflow.org/	Arquillian http://arquillian.org/
Programming language	.NET	Java
Category	Acceptance Testing	Intergration Testing, Functional Testing
General info	SpecFlow is a test automation solution for .NET SpecFlow is a test automation solution for .NET which follows the BDD paradigm, and is part of the Cucumber family. SpecFlow tests are written with Gherkin, using the official Gherkin parser which allows you to write test cases using natural languages and supports over 70 languages.	Arquillian is an Open source framework for writing Integration and functional tests Arquilian comes bundled with many extra tools such as Arquillian graphene, Drone and Selenium to write tests to the visual layer as well
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	No	Yes It is a xUnit framework
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser	Yes Front-end behaviour is tested. With specflow specifications of the expected behaviours are made and specflow tests against this	Yes You can perform unit tests on front-end components and functionality
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes Back-end behaviour is tested. Specifications of the expected behaviours are made and specflow tests against them	Yes You can unit tests on back-end behaviours and functionalities by testing specific back-end classes and functions
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	Yes BeforeTestRun and AfterTestRun are executed once for each thread which is a limitation of the current architecture.	Yes By use of extensions, for example you can use the Persistence extension to set database fixtures
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 You can define group fixtures
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.	Yes SpecFlow contains a generator component. The SpecFlow IDE integration tries to locate the generator component in your project structure, in order to use the generator version matching the SpecFlow runtime in your project	N/A
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	BSD license	Apache License 2.0
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 Specflow intergrates well with mock to give it excellent mocking capabilities	Yes Arquillian supports mock object functionality you can use third party libraries
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes You can create test suites with specflow	Yes Arquilian supports grouping of tests
