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

	TestOOB https://pypi.org/project/testoob/	Spock http://spockframework.org/
Programming language	Python	Java
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.	Spock is a testing and specification framework for Java and Groovy applications Spock has a highly expressive specification language, and due to its JUnit runner, Spock is compatible with most IDEs, build tools, and continuous integration servers.Spock is inspired from JUnit, RSpec, jMock, Mockito, Groovy, Scala, Vulcans among others
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 Spock tests front-end components and functionality by unit testing individual classes and functions
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 Spock tests back-end components and functionality by unit testing individual classes and functions
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 Spock contains four methods for setting up environments :setup() (run before every feature method), cleanup() (run after every feature method), setupSpec() (run before the first feature method), cleanupSpec() (run after the last feature 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 You can use the fixture methods to setup environments for groups of 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.	N/A	N/A
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	Apache License 2.0	Apache License 2.0
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 Spock has inbuilt mocking capabilities and has no need for external libraries
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes One can build suites with testoob	Yes You can create suites manually in spock
