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. |
Trial is a unit testing framework for Python built by Twisted Matrix labs Trial is composed of two parts: First is a command-line test runner, which can be run on plain Python unit tests and can do automated unit-test discovery across files, modules, or even arbitrarily nested packages. Second is a test library, derived from Python's 'unittest.TestCase' |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |
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 for example adding a web front-end using simple twisted.web.resource.Resource objects |
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 with Trial, it has various functions for this in the twisted.web.Resource package |
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 Trial supports various fixture methods such as 'setUp()' and 'tearDown' functions fixture for normal semantics of setup, and teardown |
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 Methods like 'setUp()' allow for creation of group 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
|
Through use of third party libraries like test-generator. |

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 Trial can access the mock library inbuilt in python for mocking purposes |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
Yes One can build suites with testoob |
Yes Trial allows tests to be grouped into test packages |
