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.

Green is a clean, colorful, fast Python test runner

This is a test runner that has pretty printing on output that makes results easy to read and understand. Some of its features include: Tests running in independent processes (fast), low redundancy in output (clean), supports pretty printing that is the terminal output, makes good use of color when the terminal supports it (colorful)
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

It can test front-end components of the django framework
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code

Yes

Wallaby.js can test server behaviour and functionality

Yes

It can test server-side behaviours of web applications written with Python
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.

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)

By use of a third party library Jest works well with wallaby

Yes

Through the use of Python's mock library
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups
