General info |
Testoob is an advanced unit testing framework for Python.Testoob integrates with existing unittest test suites. It contains many features like: a filter which tests to run with regular expressions, output test results as XML/HTML/PDF, test skipping, color output on a terminal and more. |
Doctest is an inbuilt test framework for PythonDoctest is a test framework that comes prepackaged with Python. It is a simple library with a functionality that makes it possible to search for pieces of text that look like interactive Python sessions and executes these sessions to see if they work exactly as shown. |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |

Client-side
Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser |
YesTestoob can test front-end features since it is a unit testing tool. One can write a test for each function that is on the client side |
|
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesTestoob can test back-end functionality since it is a unit testing tool. One can write a test for each function in the back-end. |
|
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
YesTestOOB extends unittest and prepares fixtures by use of the 'setUp() function just like unittest |
NoLacks fixture management which can make writing tests harder |
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. |
YesThe 'setUp()' function allows you to group your initialization functions |
NoLacks fixture management |
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) |
YesMocks are available - testoob can acess library unittest.mock which is used for mocking |
A good external library for using Mocks with Doctest is minimocks |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesOne can build suites with testoob |
YesOne can group tests |
