Test’em vs Vows comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between Test’em and Vows?

	Test’em https://github.com/testem/testem	Vows http://vowsjs.org/
Programming language	JavaScript	JavaScript
Category	Unit Testing	Functional Testing, Asynchronous Testing
General info	A Unit testing test runner for JavaScript Test'em is framework agnostic and has support for Jasmine, Qunit, Mocha and others through custom test framework adapters. It canalso run tests on all major browsers as well as Node and Phantomjs	Vows is a testing framework for NodeJS applications. Vows supports Asynchronous BDD & continuous testing for two reasons first, reason is that node.js is asynchronous, and therefore our tests need to be, second,is to make test suites which target I/O libraries run much faster.
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	It has an xUnit reporter	No
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser		No
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code		Yes Since it specifically tests Nodejs it tests back-end components and other server-side behaviours and functions
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test		No
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
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.

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)
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups
