Programming language	.NET	PHP
Category	Unit Testing	Unit Testing
General info	xUnit.net is aUnit testing framework for C# and .NET xUnit.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,	PhpSpec is a testing tool based on the concept of emergent design using specification PhpSpec is a tool to use at the spec level or SpecBDD, a type of BDD; It's process generates code for you and guides you through the SpecBDD process through the command line
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	Yes xUnit.net is part of the xUnit family of frameworks	No
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser	Yes You can test various front-end components independently since it is a Unit testing framework	Yes By testing your PHP classes that run your front-end
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes You can test various back-end components independently since it is a Unit testing framework	Yes You can use PHPSpec to test your PHP classes that run your back-end
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	Yes It contains class fixtures which are setup once pertest class	Yes You can define fixtures
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 xUnit.net contains collection fixtures which allow you to share context among many tests	Yes You can define group fixtures
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.		Yes There are methods that act as generators
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software		Free
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 It has built in support for Mocks
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups		In PHPspec, you can group specification files by a certain namespace in a suite
