Tape vs Kiwi comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between Tape and Kiwi?

	Tape https://github.com/substack/tape	Kiwi https://github.com/kiwi-bdd/Kiwi
Programming language	JavaScript	Swift
Category	Unit Testing, Intergration Testing	Unit Testing
General info	tap-producing test harness for node and browsers. Tape API is a small superset of the node core assert module	Kiwi is a Behavior Driven Development library for iOS development The goal behind Kiwi is to provide a BDD library that is simple to setup and use, and create tests that are more readable than what is possible with the bundled test framework.
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	Yes It does support xUnit output	Yes Kiwi is an xUnit style framework
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser	Yes You can write tests for any part of your front-end code to test any component or functionality	Yes You can test front-end components with kiwi
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes With tape you can test any back-end component, behaviour and functionality after all it supports TAP (Test Anything Protocol)	Yes You can test back-end components with kiwi
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	No Tape contains only the essential features for making assertions on your code but there is a package called redtape that extends tape to give you beforeEach and afterEach functionality
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.	No	Yes kiwi has a beforeEach(aBlock) which is run before every 'it' block in all enclosed contexts. Code that sets up the particular context should go here and afterEach(aBlock) which is run after every it block in all enclosed contexts
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.	No	Yes through the beforeAll(aBlock) and afterAll(aBlock) functions.

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)	No Tape is a minimalistic framework that provides only essential features to make your assertions about your code	Yes Kiwi has inbuilt support for stubs and mocks,including null mocks, class mocks, protocol mocks
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	No Tape contains only the essential features for making assertions on your code	Yes Kiwi uses the block syntax in iOS to define groups of assertions and share setup state between collections of tests
