General info |
A Python unit testing framework modelled after unittestTestify is modelled after unittest but has more features while still supporting unittest classes. It has more pythonic naming conventions, an better test runner output visually, a decorator-based approach to fixture methods among many other features |
TestNG is a testing framework for the Java programming language inspired by JUnit and NUnitTestNG is similar to JUnit and NUnit but with newer functionalities such as: annotations, test that your code is multithread safe, flexible test configuration, support for data-driven testing (with @DataProvider), support for parameters, powerful execution model (no more TestSuite) and more... It's also designed to cover all categories of tests unit, functional, end-to-end, intergration... etc |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |
No |
No |
Client-side
Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser |
YesFront-end functionality and behaviour can be tested by Testify. |
YesThe scope of testing with testNg is wide and you can test various front-end functionalities and behaviours with it |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesTestify can test various server and database behaviours and functionality |
YesYou can test server-side functionalities and behaviours with TestNg |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
YesFixture methods are supported and it follows a decorator based approach, that is they are written similar to decorators |
YesFixtures are inbuilt into testNG, these are the annotations which are: @BeforeSuite, @AfterSuite, @BeforeTest, @AfterTest, @BeforeGroups, @AfterGroups, @BeforeClass, @AfterClass, @BeforeMethod, @AfterMethod |
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 supported |
YesYou can use various fixtures to setup environments for group tests |
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. |
YesOne can create generator methods to yield runnable test methods which will pick out the test methods from your TestCases, and then exclude any in any of your exclude_suites method.If there are any require_suites, it will then further limit itself to test methods in those suites. |

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) |
YesIt includes the turtle mock object library |
YesBy Use of an external library like mockit which intergrates well with testNG |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesTestify includes support for detecting and running test suites, grouped by modules, classes, or individual test methods. |
YesMultiple test cases can be grouped more easily by converting them into testng.xml file, in which you can make priorities which test case should be executed first |
