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. |
Wallaby.js is an integrated continuous testing tool for JavaScript.Wallaby.js runs your tests immediately as you change your code (you don’t even have to save the file) and reports code coverage and other results directly to your code editor. Its also uses various techniques such as dependency analysis to only execute tests affected by your code changes and parallel test execution to ensure your tests run as fast as possible. |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |
YesYes, it is an xUnit style framework |
N/A |
Client-side
Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser |
YesDevelopers can test individual front-end components with XCTest |
YesWallaby.js can test front-end components and functionality |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesYes, developers can test individual back-end components with XCTest |
YesWallaby.js can test server 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 |
YesXCTest contains setup() and teardown() fixture methods for setting up and destroying test environments |
N/A |
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 |
By use of a third party library Jest works well with wallaby |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesDevelopers can define test suites from the XCTestSuite class |
