Vows vs Unit.js comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between Vows and Unit.js?

	Vows http://vowsjs.org/	Unit.js https://unitjs.com/
Programming language	JavaScript	JavaScript
Category	Functional Testing, Asynchronous Testing	Unit Testing, End-to-End Testing
General info	Vows is a testing framework for NodeJS applications. Vows supports Asynchronous BDD & continuous testing for two reasons first, reason is that node.js is asynchronous, and therefore our tests need to be, second,is to make test suites which target I/O libraries run much faster.	An assertion library for JavaScript (similar to chai.js) It works with any test runner and unit testing framework like Mocha, Jasmine, Karma, protractor (E2E test framework for Angular apps) and QUnit.
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	No
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser	No	Yes Unit.js runs in the browser to test front-end components
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes Since it specifically tests Nodejs it tests back-end components and other server-side behaviours and functions	Yes Unit.js runs in nodejs to test server-side behaviour
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	No	Yes Unit.js provides Test fixtures for running testsThis is one of its features
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	Yes With Unit.js you can group your 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.

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)		N/A
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups		N/A
