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. |
Kahlan is a full-featured BDD testing frameworkIt is a full-featured BDD testing framework that embraces the KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid) design principle. Kahlan makes it possible to write unit tests using the 'describe-it' syntax and requires at least PHP 5.5 |
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 |
YesWallaby.js can test front-end components and functionality |
YesKahlan allows you to test front-end components and behaviour easily |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesWallaby.js can test server behaviour and functionality |
YesYou can test individual back-end components using Kahlan |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
N/A |
YesFixtures can be defined by use of 'setUp()'method and cleaned using the 'tearDown()'method |
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 |
YesYou can write group 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) |
By use of a third party library Jest works well with wallaby |
YesWith Kahlan's stubbing system you are able to set stubs (like mocks) directly to your class methods (dynamic mocking) |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
|
YesKahlan allows you to group tests syntactically using a closure syntax. It has describe and context methods for grouping |
