Shoulda vs JasUnit comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between Shoulda and JasUnit?

	Shoulda https://github.com/thoughtbot/shoulda	JasUnit http://jster.net/library/jasunit
Programming language	Ruby	JavaScript
Category		Unit Testing
General info	Meta gem containing Shoulda Context and Shoulda Matchers Shoulda contains two other gems: Should Context and Shoulda Matchers. Should Context allows better naming and grouping of your tests. Shoulda Matchers provides a set of "matchers", i.e. methods that allow you to write much more concise assertions.	JasUnit is a slim unit testing framework for JavaScript, following the general design principles of xUnit. For testing your code, JasUnit allows you to: Create test fixtures with any number of test methods; Implement setup() and teardown() methods which are run before and after each test; Specify a namespace for a fixture for easy organisation of tests; Use the default or custom logger (default appends results to a given element); Use assertions from any scope - this isn't necessary or even really advised, but some people prefer it.
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	No	Yes JasUnit follows the general design principles o xUnit
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser	N/A	Yes JasUnit is primarily used to test front-end code and functionality
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	N/A	No
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	N/A	Yes With JasUnit you can Create test fixtures with any number of test methods Implement setup() and teardown() methods which are run before and after each test
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.	N/A	Yes JasUnit allow you to create 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.	N/A
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	MIT License	N/A
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)	N/A	Yes It provides inbuilt Mocking capabilities
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes	N/A
Other Other useful information about the testing framework	Shoulda Context is compatible with Minitest and Test::Unit. Shoulda Matchers is compatible with RSpec and Minitest.
