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

	XCTest https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xctest	Guage https://gauge.org/
Programming language	Swift	.NET
Category	Unit Testing, Performance Testing	Acceptance 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.	Gauge is a light-weight cross-platform test automation tool for writing acceptance tests. Gauge is a free and open source framework for writing and running acceptance tests. Some of its key features include: -Simple, flexible and rich syntax based on Markdown.; -Consistent cross platform/language support for writing test code.; -A modular architecture with plugins support.
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 behaviour by creating testing specifications to test front-end behaviour
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes Yes, developers can test individual back-end components with XCTest	Yes You can test back-end behaviour by creating testing specifications to test back-end behaviour
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	N/A

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 can create mocks using third party libraries like moq
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes Developers can define test suites from the XCTestSuite class	Yes You can create test suites with Gauge which can be run using multiple parameters.
