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, |
TestNG is a testing framework for the Java programming language inspired by JUnit and NUnitTestNG is similar to JUnit and NUnit but with newer functionalities such as: annotations, test that your code is multithread safe, flexible test configuration, support for data-driven testing (with @DataProvider), support for parameters, powerful execution model (no more TestSuite) and more... It's also designed to cover all categories of tests unit, functional, end-to-end, intergration... etc |
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 |
No |
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 |
YesThe scope of testing with testNg is wide and you can test various front-end functionalities and behaviours with it |
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 |
YesYou can test server-side functionalities and behaviours with TestNg |
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 |
YesFixtures are inbuilt into testNG, these are the annotations which are: @BeforeSuite, @AfterSuite, @BeforeTest, @AfterTest, @BeforeGroups, @AfterGroups, @BeforeClass, @AfterClass, @BeforeMethod, @AfterMethod |
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 |
YesYou can use various fixtures to setup environments for group tests |
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) |
|
YesBy Use of an external library like mockit which intergrates well with testNG |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
|
YesMultiple test cases can be grouped more easily by converting them into testng.xml file, in which you can make priorities which test case should be executed first |
