XCTest vs BeanTest comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between XCTest and BeanTest?

	XCTest https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xctest	BeanTest https://github.com/NovatecConsulting/BeanTest
Programming language	Swift	Java
Category	Unit Testing, Performance Testing	Unit Testing, Intergration Testing
General info	XCTest is the default testing framework for unit tests, performance tests, and some level of UI tests for iOS apps. XCTest framework is a testing framework that enables developers write basic unit tests, performance tests, and some level of UI tests for iOS apps.	A testing solution for Java EE applications BeanTest is a testing solution for Java EE Applications which combines the speed of unit tests with almost the coverage of integration tests with minimal configuration and with standard and well known frameworks like JPA, CDI, Mockito and Junit
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	Yes Yes, it is an xUnit style framework	No
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser	Yes Developers can test individual front-end components with XCTest	Yes You can test front-end components of your EE application
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes Yes, developers can test individual back-end components with XCTest	Yes BeanTest is used to test business logic or the back-end that is information exchange between the database and the UI
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	Yes XCTest contains setup() and teardown() fixture methods for setting up and destroying test environments
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.	Yes Group fixtures are available in XCTest
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
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	Apache License 2.0
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)	Yes You can create protocol mocks and class mocks with libraries such as MockFive or Cuckoo	Yes You are able to provide your own Mocks in BeanTest to test external dependencies
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes Developers can define test suites from the XCTestSuite class
