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

	TwistedTrial https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/wiki/TwistedTrial	QUnit https://qunitjs.com/
Programming language	Python	JavaScript
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'	QUnit is a JS Unit testing framework. QUnit is especially useful for regression testing of jQuery, jQuery UI and jQuery Mobile projects
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	No	Yes Yes, it is a xUnit style framework
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 QUnit is commonly used by jQuery, jQuery UI and jQuery Mobile It can test front-end components and functionality
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 Qunit can test any JavaScript code(including itself), this includes server-side components and functionality. Supports NodeJs
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	Yes By using the qunit-fixture element which is a container for some HTML that your tests can assert against.
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	Yes You can group fixtures together with QUnit
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.
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	You can use third party libraries like jQuery's Mockjax plugin
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes Trial allows tests to be grouped into test packages	Yes You can use the QUnit.module() function to group tests together
