TestOOB vs Peridot comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between TestOOB and Peridot?

	TestOOB https://pypi.org/project/testoob/	Peridot http://peridot-php.github.io/
Programming language	Python	PHP
Category	Unit Testing, unittest Extensions	Unit Testing
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.	Peridot is a lightweight, extensible testing framework for PHP It features an event-driven architecture that allows testers to easily customize the framework via plugins and reporters, and uses the 'describe-it', syntax making the testing language clear and readable
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	Yes Testoob 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	Yes Front-end components can be tested with Peridot
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes Testoob can test back-end functionality since it is a unit testing tool. One can write a test for each function in the back-end.	Yes Back-end componets and behaviours can be tested as small units
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	Yes TestOOB extends unittest and prepares fixtures by use of the 'setUp() function just like unittest	Yes Peridot has several methods that allow one to create and define fixtures
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.	Yes The 'setUp()' function allows you to group your initialization functions	Yes There are methods to create group fixtures in Peridot
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	N/A
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	Apache License 2.0	MIT License
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)	Yes Mocks are available - testoob can acess library unittest.mock which is used for mocking	Peridot does not include mocking out of the box but there are some great tools like 'Mockery' and 'Prophecy' which Peridot intergrates very well with
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes One can build suites with testoob	Yes By use of describe and context blocks and it has a Runner which is responsible for running a given Suite.
