General info |
SpecFlow is a test automation solution for .NETSpecFlow 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. |
Jnario is a test framework for Java focusing on the design and documentation aspects of testingJnario is based on Xtend and consists of two domain-specific languages, one for writing readable acceptance tests, the other for succinct unit tests. Together they are well suited for behavior-driven development of Java programs. |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |
No |
YesIt is an xUnit type testing framework |
Client-side
Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser |
YesFront-end behaviour is tested. With specflow specifications of the expected behaviours are made and specflow tests against this |
YesYou can write scenarios to test various front-end behaviours using 'Given', 'When', 'Then' steps to describe simple scenarios |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesBack-end behaviour is tested. Specifications of the expected behaviours are made and specflow tests against them |
YesYou can write unit tests to test server side behaviours and components using Jnario specs |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
YesBeforeTestRun and AfterTestRun are executed once for each thread which is a limitation of the current architecture. |
YesIt contains the Setup & Teardown functions similar to JUnit but less verbose |
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 |
YesThe Setup & Teardown functions can be used as 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. |
YesSpecFlow 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 |

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) |
YesSpecflow intergrates well with mock to give it excellent mocking capabilities |
YesYou can implement mocking through the use of a third partylibrary like Mockito |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesYou can create test suites with specflow |
YesJnario Suites allows you to group multiple specifications into suites and execute them together, you do this using the suite wizard |
