stestr vs Chai comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between stestr and Chai?

	stestr https://pypi.org/project/stestr/	Chai https://www.chaijs.com
Programming language	Python	JavaScript
Category	Unit Testing	Unit Testing
General info	stestr is a Python test runner designed to execute unittest test suites stestr executes unittest test suites by using multiple processes to split up execution of a test suite then stores a history of all test runs to help in debugging failures and optimizing the scheduler to improve speed.	Chai is a BDD / TDD assertion library for Node.js and the browser that can be paired with any JavaScript testing framework. Chai is an assertion library, similar to Node's built-in assert and makes testing easier by giving you many assertions you can run against your code. It also includes a robust Plugin architecture for extending Chai's assertions and interfaces.
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 Stestr being a test runner that runs unittest tests, it can test fron-tend functionality and behaviour.	Yes Chai can be used in a browser environment to test front-end components and functionality
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes Stestr being a test runner that runs unittest tests, it can run back-end tests for functionality and behaviour.	Yes Chai is used in a Node.JS environment to test server behaviour and functionality
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	Yes By use of a third party library like Fixture	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.	By use of a third party library like Fixture	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.	Yes By using a library like test-generator	Yes By using chai-spec-generator plugin which will generate chai test specs from a JavaScript object

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	Yes By using by using a third party library like chai-jest-mocks which is a chai plugin that adds assertions for jest mock functions. You can also use sinon.js
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	N/A	N/A
