Tacinga vs JDave comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between Tacinga and JDave?

	Tacinga https://github.com/OwenMcDonnell/tacinga	JDave http://jdave.org/
Programming language	Java	Java
Category	Unit Testing	Acceptance Testing
General info	Tacinga is an Object-Oriented Java unit testing library	JDave is a BDD framework for Java JDave is inspired by RSpec and integrates JMock 2 as mocking framework and Hamcrest as matching library. It uses JUnit adapter to launch JDave specifications. This way it is possible to have IDE, build tool and coverage tool support from day one.
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.		No
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser	Yes You can unit test front-end components with tacinga	Yes Front-end behaviour can be tested with JDave
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes You can test back-end components and functionality.with tacinga	Yes JDave can test server-side behaviour
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	N/A	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.	N/A	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	MIT License (for non-commercial use); Commercial License (for commercial use)	Apache License 2.0
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)	You can use external libraries like mockit	Yes It integrates JMock 2 as mocking framework
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	N/A	Yes Specifications can be grouped by tagging them with @Group annotation.
