tap-producing test harness for node and browsers. Tape API is a small superset of the node core assert module |
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. |
Yes It does support xUnit output |
No

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) |
No

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 |
Yes You can create fixtures with TestCafe |
Group fixtures
