Goconvey vs DbUnit comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between Goconvey and DbUnit?

	Goconvey https://github.com/smartystreets/goconvey	DbUnit http://dbunit.sourceforge.net/
Programming language	Go	Java
Category	Regression Testing, Unit Testing	Unit Testing
General info	BDD style testing framework for Go Goconvey is a two pronged testing tool consisting of a test runner that watches your code for changes, runs 'go test' and renders your results in a web browser and the second a library that allows you to write BDD-style tests with standard 'go test' functions	Dbunit is a Junit extension for unit testing database driven programs DbUnit has the ability to export and import your database data to and from XML datasets. Since version 2.0, DbUnit can also work with very large datasets when used in streaming mode and can also help you to verify that your database data match an expected set of values
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	No	Yes It is a JUnit extension which is one of the most widely known members of the xUnit family
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser	Yes Yes, Goconvey can perform front-end tests	No
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes Yes one can perform end-to-end HTTP tests with goconvey to see how an application works against remote servers	Yes Yes its used to test database functionality
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	Yes Yes, Goconvey uses scopes to define fixtures and a reset function for teardown	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.	Yes One can define group fixtures using scopes	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.	Yes The web UI has a button to open the built in generator	N/A
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	Goconvey License	GNU 2.1 License
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 Using the mock package or mockery library to autogenerate mock code	No
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes Similar to a table driven approach an entire suite can be contained in a single function	No
