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. |
go test is an inbuilt tool/command for conducting automated tests in Golang while testing is the inbuilt testing libraryTesting is the package that is shipped with go and combines with the go test command to provide a minimal but complete testing experience |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |
No |
NoHowever there are Plugins such as https://github.com/tebeka/go2xunitto convert the output of Go testing library into xUnit format |
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 |
YesYes it can be used effectively for front-end testing |
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. |
YesYes, it is used by developers for end-to-end testing so the back-end can be tested easily as well |
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 |
YesYes it's straightforward in that first when you run 'go test' for packages in the scope the test will be executed with its working directory set to the source directory of the package being tested. Second the 'go test' tool will ignore any directory in your $GOPATH that starts with the word 'testdata' , starts with a period or an underscore |
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 |
YesGroup fixtures can be done following a similar procedure as a single fixture |
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 |
YesThey are available by importing a package called 'gotests' (https://github.com/cweill/gotests) |

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 |
YesBy use of a third party library GoMock which intergrates well with the testing library |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesOne can build suites with testoob |
YesThe short answer is yes, by use of table tests which are a great way of performing multiple I/O tests on a function or behaviour with minimal code |
