Wallaby.js vs Cucumber-JVM comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between Wallaby.js and Cucumber-JVM?

	Wallaby.js https://wallabyjs.com/	Cucumber-JVM https://github.com/cucumber/cucumber-jvm
Programming language	JavaScript	Java
Category	Unit Testing	Acceptance Testing
General info	Wallaby.js is an integrated continuous testing tool for JavaScript. Wallaby.js runs your tests immediately as you change your code (you don’t even have to save the file) and reports code coverage and other results directly to your code editor. Its also uses various techniques such as dependency analysis to only execute tests affected by your code changes and parallel test execution to ensure your tests run as fast as possible.	Cucumber-JVM is a pure Java implementation of Cucumber The specifications are written in plain texts, which allows them to be easily understandable by all stakeholders.
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 Wallaby.js can test front-end components and functionality	Yes You can test the front-end part like the GUI using cucumber with serenity, they integrate well to test your front-end.
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes Wallaby.js can test server behaviour and functionality	Yes You can test back-end components such as API's using rest&soap clients, and databases
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	N/A	Yes Using the cucumber extension aruba you can create fixures in two steps: 1.Create a fixtures-directory; 2.Create fixture files in this directory
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	Yes You can group your fixtures inside your fixtures directories
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	N/A
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	N/A	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)	By use of a third party library Jest works well with wallaby	Yes By using all of RSpec’s supported mocking frameworks (RSpec, Mocha, RR, Flexmock)
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups		Yes Cucumber allows the use of tag Cucumber feature files or individual tests to group tests. Then, you can pass a Cucumber tagged expression at test execution that specifies the tag (grouped) tests to run. https://www.toolsqa.com/cucumber/cucumber-tags/
