Tyrtle vs Hound comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between Tyrtle and Hound?

	Tyrtle https://github.com/spadgos/tyrtle	Hound https://github.com/HashNuke/hound
Programming language	JavaScript	Elixir
Category	Unit Testing	Browser Automation, Intergration Testing
General info	Tyrtle is a Javascript unit testing framework that emphasises simplicity, cleanliness and expressiveness. Tyrtle runs either in the browser or on NodeJS. In a CommonJS environment (eg: Node, or the browser running RequireJS), nothing is added to the global space, and with plain Javascript in the browser, only one variable is added to the window object. This keeps it clean and ensures that it won't interfere with your codebase.	Elixir library for browser automation and writing intergration tests It is a front-end testing library that has support for: Selenium (Firefox, Chrome), ChromeDriver and PhantomJs. Also supports JavaScript applications and retries tests a few times before reporting errors
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	N/A	No
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser	Yes Front-end pieces of code can be tested, you can test various components and functionality	Yes Allows for browser Automation and writing of end-to-end tests for web apps, supports Selenium WebDriver, ChromeDriver, and PhantomJS - GhostDriver
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes Back-end components and functions can be tested using tyrtle	N/A
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	N/A	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.	N/A	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	Yes Not inbuilt but by use of a third party library like ExopData
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	GNU GPL	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 using Myrtle, a sister project of Tyrtle which provides various Mocking features such as: -Mocking (spying and stubbing functions); -Mock function generation; -Timer manipulation-Speed profiling	Yes Yes, through the use of a third party library like Mockery
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	N/A	N/A
