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

	TestOOB https://pypi.org/project/testoob/	WebdriverIO https://webdriver.io/
Programming language	Python	JavaScript
Category	Unit Testing, unittest Extensions	Browser Automation, Unit Testing, Functional 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.	WebdriverIO is the next-gen WebDriver test framework for Node.js made upon Selenium WebdriverIO is written in JavaScript and uses Selenium under the hood. It also comes with its own inbuilt test runner and supports other testing frameworks like Jasmine, Cucumber, and Mocha
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	No	Yes
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 WebdriverIO allows the use of advanced CSS selectors and makes it easy to find elements for front-end testing
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 It can be used to test server side behaviour and functionality
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 WebdriverIO supports the creation of 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 WebdriverIO supports the 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	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	Yes It contains a mocking service called 'wdio-wiremock-service'
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes One can build suites with testoob	Yes WebdriverIO allows one to build test suites, you can run these test in parallel and organize them by adjusting the 'maxInstances' property in your config file
