General info |
wru is an essential general purpose test framework compatible with web environment, node.js, Rhino, and now PhantomJS too.wru is compatible with basically all possible browsers out there included IE5.5, IE6, IE7, IE8, IE9, IE10, Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Webkit based, Mobile Browsers, and Opera. On server side wru is compatible with latest node.js, Rhino, PhantomJS, and JavaScriptCore versions. |
Domain Specific Language (DSL) testing solution for Ruby codeIt focuses on empowering Test Driven Development (TDD). RSpec contains multiple smaller libraries, which may be independently used with other testing frameworks. |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |
YesWru is compatible with xUnit |
YesYes, but it differs from more traiditional xUnit solutions. Its tests are written in a "Tests as Specification" manner. This means that the terminology used in RSpec is adjusted to a language more fitting for specification. |
Client-side
Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser |
YesWru tests front-end components and functions, it is compatible with HTML and runs on probably all browsers |
YesRSpec is used to primarily test the behaviour of applications or individual components so it can test front-end behaviour as well - you can use capybara gem with RSpec for that. |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesIt is used to test back-end components and behaviour and runs in server environments |
YesYou can test server-side behaviour with Rspec |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
N/A |
YesRSpec does contain fixture methods |
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 |
YesGroup fixture methods are supported |
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 |
YesRSpec contains generators for example intergration_'test_name' which will save a spec inside the spec/requests folder |

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) |
You can implement your stubs and mocks using a wru.assert(...) when necessary during a specific test. |
YesAvailable through rspec-mocks gem. |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
N/A |
YesAllows declaring example groups and contexts. |
