TickSpec vs Lighttest comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between TickSpec and Lighttest?

	TickSpec https://github.com/fsprojects/TickSpec	Lighttest http://asvd.github.io/lighttest
Programming language	.NET	JavaScript
Category	Acceptance Testing	Unit Testing
General info	TickSpec is a lightweight Behaviour Driven Development (BDD) framework for .Net With TickSpeck you can describe behaviour in plain text using the Gherkin business language, execute the behaviour against matching F# 'ticked' methods, or attribute-tagged C# or F# methods, run via your normal test runners or plugins and set breakpoints in the scenarios, step definitions or your code and go (setting breakpoints in the Gherkin is currently not supported in .NET Standard version)	Lighttest is a JavaScript unit-testing library — it works both in browsers and under Node.js, supports flow control, and is focused on keeping the tests clear. Lighttest keeps tests clear by using a minimal syntax of the test cases, and the only testing function, lighttest.check(), is used to indicate a success or a failure. Any testing behaviour can be implemented using this function JavaScript natively meaning no additional testing API is required.
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	No	N/A
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser	Yes You can test front-end behaviour by creating feature specifications for front-end behaviour	Yes Light Test works in the browser to test client side components and behaviours
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes You can test back-end code by creating feature specifications to test back-end behaviour	Yes Light Test works with NodeJs to test back-end environments behaviours and components in short it can test any behaviour in the back-end as well as the front-end
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	Yes Fixtures are available or are derived from the class FeatureFixture	N/A
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 TickSpec contains group fixtures	N/A
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

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 By using a third party mocking library like moq	N/A
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes You can create test suites with TickSpec	N/A
