General info |
xUnit.net is aUnit testing framework for C# and .NETxUnit.net is a free, open source, community-focused unit testing tool for the .NET Framework. It is used to test C#, F#, VB.NET and other .NET languages. xUnit.net and works with ReSharper, CodeRush, TestDriven.NET and Xamarin. It is part of the .NET Foundation, |
Chai is a BDD / TDD assertion library for Node.js and the browser that can be paired with any JavaScript testing framework.Chai is an assertion library, similar to Node's built-in assert and makes testing easier by giving you many assertions you can run against your code. It also includes a robust Plugin architecture for extending Chai's assertions and interfaces. |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |
YesxUnit.net is part of the xUnit family of frameworks |
N/A |
Client-side
Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser |
YesYou can test various front-end components independently since it is a Unit testing framework |
YesChai can be used in a browser environment to test front-end components and functionality |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesYou can test various back-end components independently since it is a Unit testing framework |
YesChai is used in a Node.JS environment to 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 |
YesIt contains class fixtures which are setup once pertest class |
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. |
YesxUnit.net contains collection fixtures which allow you to share context among many tests |
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. |
|
YesBy using chai-spec-generator plugin which will generate chai test specs from a JavaScript object |

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) |
|
YesBy using by using a third party library like chai-jest-mocks which is a chai plugin that adds assertions for jest mock functions. You can also use sinon.js |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
