TwistedTrial vs Testify golang comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between TwistedTrial and Testify golang?

	TwistedTrial https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/wiki/TwistedTrial	Testify golang https://github.com/stretchr/testify
Programming language	Python	Go
Category	Unit Testing, unittest Extensions	Unit Testing
General info	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'	A set of golang packages that has many tools for testing Go code Testify is a Go testing framework that has some great features like easier assertions, Test suite Interfaces, and Mocks
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 Front-end components can be tested for example adding a web front-end using simple twisted.web.resource.Resource objects	Yes Yes, since it is also easily hooked to 'testing' package it is used to test front-end components
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes Server-side behaviour can be tested with Trial, it has various functions for this in the twisted.web.Resource package	Yes Yes it can also be used to test back-end components 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 Trial supports various fixture methods such as 'setUp()' and 'tearDown' functions fixture for normal semantics of setup, and teardown	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 Methods like 'setUp()' allow for creation of 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.	Through use of third party libraries like test-generator.	N/A
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	MIT License	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 Trial can access the mock library inbuilt in python for mocking purposes	Yes Its 'mock' package has a mechanism for easily writing mock objects that are used in place of real objects
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes Trial allows tests to be grouped into test packages	Yes Using the 'suite' package developers can build a test suite as a struct build teardown and setup methods as well as testing methods on the struct then run them with 'go test'
