Turnip vs JGiven comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between Turnip and JGiven?

	Turnip https://github.com/jnicklas/turnip	JGiven http://jgiven.org/
Programming language	Ruby	Java
Category	Acceptance Testing, Integration Testing	Acceptance Testing
General info	Turnip is a Gherkin extension for RSpec Turnip is an open source Ruby gem that provides a platform for acceptance tests.It combines Gherkin, a language defined by the Cucumber Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) tool to express requirements, and RSpec, an open source BDD tool for Ruby developers.	JGiven is a BDD tool for Java in plain java. With JGiven Developers write scenarios in plain Java using a fluent, domain-specific API, JGiven generates reports that are readable by domain experts.
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 Turnip can perform end-to-end tests therefore test front-end components and functionality	Yes You can test UI functionality or behaviour by writing scenarios that cover front-end behaviour
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes Turnip is used to test server-side behaviour and components	Yes You can write 'scenarios' to test server-side behaviours
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	No
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.	No	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.	No	N/A
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	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 By intergrating with RSpec turnip has access to the rspec-mocks gem	Yes You can use third party libraries such as JMock and JMockit to mock objects and functions
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes Turnip Integrates directly into your RSpec test suite which allows declaring example groups and contexts.
