General info |
Specter is a behaviour-driven development framework for .NET and MonoSpecter enables behavior driven development (BDD) by allowing developers to write executable specifications for their objects, before actually implementing them, this is similar to test driven development however the different nomenclature makes it different from writing 'tests' for code that does not exist yet |
Quick is a Swift (and Objective-C) testing framework.Quick is a behavior-driven development framework for Swift and Objective-C that is inspired by RSpec, Specta, and Ginkgo. Quick comes bundled with Nimble a matcher framework for your tests. |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |
No |
YesYes, it is an xUnit style test framework |
Client-side
Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser |
YesDevelopers can create specfications of the expected front-end behaviours and test them |
YesDevelopers can test front-end behaviour and components by defining front-end feature specifications |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesYes developers can create specfications of the expected back-end behaviours and test these. |
YesDevelopers can test back-end behaviour and components by defining back-end feature specifications |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
N/A |
YesQuick contains fixture methods setup() and teardown() for setting up and destroying test environments |
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 |
YesYes, example groups (logical groupings of examples/tests) can share setup and teardown code |
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. |

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) |
N/A |
YesYes, developers can create mock objects with Quick using the Cuckoo library |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesYou can create your own test suites with specter |
YesIn Quick test suites are named Specs, and every test suite you create starts off with a class inheriting from QuickSpec includes a main method, spec() which contains all the test cases. |
