General info |
WebdriverIO is the next-gen WebDriver test framework for Node.js made upon SeleniumWebdriverIO is written in JavaScript and uses Selenium under the hood. It also comes with its own inbuilt test runner and supports other testing frameworks like Jasmine, Cucumber, and Mocha |
D.O.H means Dojo Objective Harness, it's a test framework for the DOJO web apps which tests and runs on the browser and on cloud test execution services like BrowserstackDojo is a Typescript framework build for modern web application, and D.O.H is a basically unit test library to test JavaScript functions and custom widgets |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |
Yes |
No |
Client-side
Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser |
YesWebdriverIO allows the use of advanced CSS selectors and makes it easy to find elements for front-end testing |
YesDOH is both flexible and extendable and runs in many environments including many browsers to test various front-end functionalities and components |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesIt can be used to test server side behaviour and functionality |
YesPieces of back-end code can be tested with DOH as it performs Unit tests. It is flexible enough to test server-side behaviour and functionality |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
YesWebdriverIO supports the creation of fixtures |
It has various fixture methods like setUp(), tearDown() and Performance test fixtures which are just like a regular test fixtures, but with extra options. Specifically, it uses 'testType' to mark it as a "perf" test, which instructs the D.O.H. runner to treat the tests as performance and use the calibrate and execute test runner |
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. |
YesWebdriverIO supports the creation of group fixtures |
YesIt supports 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) |
YesIt contains a mocking service called 'wdio-wiremock-service' |

Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesWebdriverIO allows one to build test suites, you can run these test in parallel and organize them by adjusting the 'maxInstances' property in your config file |
YesThere is a function that allows you to group tests, the 'doh.register(...)' function. It's most commonly used for registering Unit Tests |
