Suitest vs Needle comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between Suitest and Needle?

	Suitest https://github.com/SuitestAutomation/suitest-js-api	Needle http://needle.spree.de/
Programming language	JavaScript	Java
Category	End-to-End Testing, Browser Automation	Unit Testing
General info	Suitest is a freemium test automation tool specially designed for Smart/AndroidApple TV, XBOX, PlayStation4 and websites Suitest provides the codeless visual test editor on it's platform to easily create the automation scripts without any knowledge of programming languages. You can also see the version and result history. And Test execution is pretty fast	Needle is a lightweight framework for testing Java EE components outside of the container in isolation Needle reduces the test setup code by analysing dependencies and has automatic injection of mock objects by default. Therefore It will maximize the speed of development as well as the execution of unit tests
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	No No, Since Suitest has a created custom framework service to test the apps on TV, Gaming consoles and website	No
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser	Yes Suitetest allows for testing front-end components and functionality, it is a browser automation tool after all.	Yes You can test front-end components and functionality by testing individual front-end classes and functions
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes Since it performs end-to-end testing this includes critical functionalities like database/server connections, communications and other server-side functionalities	Yes You can test back-end components and functionality.one of needles features is database testing via a JPA (Java Persistence API) like hibernate
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	N/A	Yes It has setUp() and tearDown() functions which are mostly used to execute database operations
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	Yes The setUp() and tearDown functions can be used to define an environment for a group of tests
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	MIT License	GNU Lesser General Public License v2.1
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 Mocks are available	Yes One of needle's features is automatic injection of mock objects, it supports EasyMock and Mockito out of the box
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	You can create suites in suitetest	N/A
