Spek vs HavaRunner comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between Spek and HavaRunner?

	Spek https://www.spekframework.org/	HavaRunner https://github.com/havarunner/havarunner
Programming language	Kotlin	Java
Category	Acceptance Testing, Unit Testing	Unit Testing
General info	Spek is a specification framework for Kotlin Spek is a Kotlin-based Specification Testing framework for the JVM. It works as a JUnit 5 Test Engine meaning that we can easily plug it into any project that already uses JUnit 5 to run alongside any other tests that we might have.	HavaRuner is a Java test framework with built-in concurrency support, suites and scenarios HavaRunner is a Java test framework that has built in support for concurrency and enables you to create suites. You can run the same test against multiple scenarios and speeds up development cycles with faster tests.HavaRunner is a JUnit runner, which means that it is built on top of JUnit it's fairly straightforward to adopt it in a codebase that already has JUnit tests.
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 Yes you can test front-end behaviour by writing specifications to test front-end functionality. Developers can also write unit tests for individual front-end components.	Yes You can test front-end functionality and components with havarunner
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes You can test back-end behaviour and componets by writing specifications to test back-end functionality and unit tests for individual back-end components	Yes HavaRunner is able to test server side functions and components
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	Yes Fixtures are available in spek through functions suchas beforeEachTest() and afterEachTest()	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.	Yes spek has group fixtures available through the beforeGroup() and afterGroup() functions	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.	N/A	N/A
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	Modified 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 You can use the third party library mockito-kotlin
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes Tests are written using nested lambdas, each scope (level) can either be a group or a test	Yes You can group your tests by annotating them as @PartOf a suite
