SpecFlow vs mocha-parallel-tests comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between SpecFlow and mocha-parallel-tests?

	SpecFlow https://specflow.org/	mocha-parallel-tests https://www.npmjs.com/package/mocha-parallel-tests
Programming language	.NET	JavaScript
Category	Acceptance Testing	Unit Testing, Intergration Testing, End-to-End 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.	mocha-parallel-tests is a test runner for tests written with mocha testing framework. mocha-parallel-tests allows you to run your tests in parallel and executes each of your test files in a separate process while still maintaining the output of mocha
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	No	N/A
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 Mocha-parallel-tests Runs in the browser and is used widely to test front-end components and functionality. It can test various DOM elements, front-end functions and so on.
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 Mocha-parallel-tests provides convenient ways of testing the Node server.
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.	Mocha, which is the the framework which mocha-parallel-tests runs provides the hooks before(), after(), beforeEach(), and afterEach() to set up preconditions and clean up after your tests
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 Group fixtures are available
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	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 Specflow intergrates well with mock to give it excellent mocking capabilities	Provides Mocking capabilities through third party Libraries like sinon.js, simple-mock and nock
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes You can create test suites with specflow	Yes Grouping is supported and is accomplished by the using a nested 'describe()'
