General info |
Storyplayer is a full-stack testing frameworkStoryplayer follows a TDD testing approach and makes it possible to write end-to-end tests for an entire platform. It has support for creating and destroying test environments on demand |
TestCafe is a Node.js tool to automate end-to-end web testing.TestCafe runs on Windows, MacOs, and Linux and supports mobile, remote and cloud browsers (UI or headless). It is also free and open source |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |

Client-side
Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser |
YesBy running a 'user story' which is a simple statement that describes one action, and who can perform that action then record of the conversations about this action, this is how you would test front-end functionality and components |
YesTestCafe is primarily a front-end testing tool |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesBy writing a 'service story' which is a 'userstory' except it describes the behaviour of your back-end systems |
No |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
YesStoryplayer has fixtures that can create and destroy test environments on demand |
YesYou can create fixtures with TestCafe |
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. |
YesIt supports group fixtures |

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. |
Yesforeach(hostWithRole()) is a generator allows you to easily perform actions against all hosts in your test environment without having to hard-code the host IDs or hostnames into your story. |

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) |
By using a library like mockery which intergrates well with storyplayer |
YesWe can mock requests with the 'RequestMock' hook |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesStoryplayer’s job is to execute a suite of functional tests |
