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

	TickSpec https://github.com/fsprojects/TickSpec	Unitils http://www.unitils.org/summary.html
Programming language	.NET	Java
Category	Acceptance Testing	Unit Testing, Intergration 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)	Unitils is an open source library whose goal is to make unit and integration testing easy and maintainable. Unitils is divided into modules, each of them providing support for a certain aspect of your unit and integration tests. For example if you need mocking for your tests, just include unitils-mock as a dependency, If you would also want to load DbUnit data sets, just include unitils-dbunit
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 You can test front-end behaviour by creating feature specifications for front-end behaviour	Yes You can perform unit tests on various components and functionality that make up the front-end
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 Unitils provides support for testing the back-end through modules such as DbUnit which specifically tests your database, i.e connections setup and so on
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
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
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
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	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 By using a third party mocking library like moq
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes You can create test suites with TickSpec
