Spock vs TestOOB comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between Spock and TestOOB?

	Spock http://spockframework.org/	TestOOB https://pypi.org/project/testoob/
Programming language	Java	Python
Category	Unit Testing	Unit Testing, unittest Extensions
General info	Spock is a testing and specification framework for Java and Groovy applications Spock has a highly expressive specification language, and due to its JUnit runner, Spock is compatible with most IDEs, build tools, and continuous integration servers.Spock is inspired from JUnit, RSpec, jMock, Mockito, Groovy, Scala, Vulcans among others	Testoob is an advanced unit testing framework for Python. Testoob integrates with existing unittest test suites. It contains many features like: a filter which tests to run with regular expressions, output test results as XML/HTML/PDF, test skipping, color output on a terminal and more.
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 Spock tests front-end components and functionality by unit testing individual classes and functions	Yes Testoob can test front-end features since it is a unit testing tool. One can write a test for each function that is on the client side
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes Spock tests back-end components and functionality by unit testing individual classes and functions	Yes Testoob can test back-end functionality since it is a unit testing tool. One can write a test for each function in the back-end.
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	Yes Spock contains four methods for setting up environments :setup() (run before every feature method), cleanup() (run after every feature method), setupSpec() (run before the first feature method), cleanupSpec() (run after the last feature method)	Yes TestOOB extends unittest and prepares fixtures by use of the 'setUp() function just like unittest
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 You can use the fixture methods to setup environments for groups of tests.	Yes The 'setUp()' function allows you to group your initialization functions
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

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 Spock has inbuilt mocking capabilities and has no need for external libraries	Yes Mocks are available - testoob can acess library unittest.mock which is used for mocking
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes You can create suites manually in spock	Yes One can build suites with testoob
