General info |
MSTest is a Unit testing framework for the .net frameworkMSTest is fully integrated with Visual Studios and works natively without the need for any plugins. MSTest is better suited for only using Microsoft technologies rather than mixed technology environments. |
BDD testing framework for GoGinkgo is a BDD testing framework for Go that has a great matcher library to go with it called Gomega and intergrates with the standard testing library |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |
YesMsTest is an xUnit type framework |
No |
Client-side
Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser |
YesMsTest can test various front-end components |
YesYes, by creating unit tests then testing individual front-end components |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesWith MSTest you can test various back-end components individually |
YesYes by creating unit tests then testing various back-end components |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
YesMSTest contains fixture methods TestInitialize to setup your environment and TestCleanup to destroy the test environment |
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. |
YesGroup fixtures are available |
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 |
YesThey are available by running the command: 'ginko bootstrap' |

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) |
YesYou can create mock objects using the third party library moq |
YesDvelopers can generate mocks by using the third party package 'gomock' |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesGrouping of tests into suites is possible with MSTest |
YesGinkgo allows you to group tests in 'Describe' and 'Context' container blocks. It also provides 'It' and 'Specify' blocks to hold your assertions |
