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. |
JGiven is a BDD tool for Java in plain java.With JGiven Developers write scenarios in plain Java using a fluent, domain-specific API, JGiven generates reports that are readable by domain experts. |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |
YesYes, it is an xUnit style framework |
No |
Client-side
Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser |
YesDevelopers can test individual front-end components with XCTest |
YesYou can test UI functionality or behaviour by writing scenarios that cover front-end behaviour |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesYes, developers can test individual back-end components with XCTest |
YesYou can write 'scenarios' to test server-side behaviours |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
YesXCTest 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. |
YesGroup fixtures are available in XCTest |
N/A |
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) |
YesYou can create protocol mocks and class mocks with libraries such as MockFive or Cuckoo |
YesYou can use third party libraries such as JMock and JMockit to mock objects and functions |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesDevelopers can define test suites from the XCTestSuite class |
