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

	TestOOB https://pypi.org/project/testoob/	SimpleTest https://github.com/simpletest/simpletest
Programming language	Python	PHP
Category	Unit Testing, unittest Extensions	Unit Testing, Web 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.	SimpleTest is a unit test and web test framework for PHP It has JWebUnit style functionality and support for SSL, forms, frames, proxies and basic authentication
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 With SimpleTest common but fiddly PHP tasks, such as logging into a site, can be tested easily
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 Server-side behaviour can be tested by writing simple unit tests to test functionality and behaviour of single components.
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 It can import fixtures using a mixin like 'given()' method
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 It allows grouping of fixtures
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	Yes Simpletest has support for generators

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	Yes It allows for one to build Mock objects.To create a mock version of a class we need to include the mock object library and run the generator. This will create a clone class which we use to create new instances(objects) in our test cases.
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes One can build suites with testoob	Yes There are several ways of grouping tests; one is to simply place multiple test cases into a single file, another is to mark any base test cases that should not be run as abstract, Simpletest gives you a couple of options
