PHPUnit
PHPUnit
PHPUnit requires the dom and json extensions, which are normally enabled by default. PHPUnit also requires the pcre, reflection, and spl extensions. These standard extensions are enabled by default and cannot be disabled without patching PHP’s build system and/or C sources. The code coverage report feature requires the Xdebug (2.7.0 or later) and tokenizer extensions. Generating XML reports requires the xmlwriter extension. Unit Tests are primarily written as a good practice to help developers identify and fix bugs, to refactor code and to serve as documentation for a unit of software under test. To achieve these benefits, unit tests ideally should cover all the possible paths in a program. One unit test usually covers one specific path in one function or method. However a test method is not necessarily an encapsulated, independent entity. Often there are implicit dependencies between test methods, hidden in the implementation scenario of a test.Starting Price: Free -
4
Jasmine
Jasmine
Jasmine attempts as best as possible to follow semantic versioning. This means we reserve major versions (1.0, 2.0, etc.) for breaking changes or other significant work. Most Jasmine releases end up being minor releases (2.3, 2.4, etc.). Major releases are very infrequent. Jasmine generally avoids dropping support for browser or Node versions except in major releases. The exceptions to this are Node versions that are past end of life, browsers that we can no longer install locally and/or test against in our CI builds, browsers that no longer receive security updates, and browsers that only run on operating systems that no longer receive security updates. We’ll make reasonable efforts to keep Jasmine working in those environments but won’t necessarily do a major release if they break.Starting Price: Free -
5
JMockit
JMockit
The toolkit is provided as a set of artifacts deployed to the Maven Central repository. It requires Java 7 or newer for test execution; tests must use JUnit or TestNG. For instructions on how to add the library to a Java project, see Running tests with JMockit. In this tutorial we examine the APIs available in the library, with the help of example tests (using Java 8). The central API - a single annotation - provides support for the automatic instantiation and initialization of the objects to be tested. Then we have the mocking API (also known as the "Expectations" API), intended for tests which use mocked dependencies. Finally, there is a small faking API (aka the "Mockups" API), which can be used for the creation and application of fake implementations that avoid the full cost of external components.Starting Price: Free -
6
Puppeteer
Puppeteer
Most things that you can do manually in the browser can be done using Puppeteer! Puppeteer-core is intended to be a lightweight version of Puppeteer for launching an existing browser installation or for connecting to a remote one. Be sure that the version of puppeteer-core you install is compatible with the browser you intend to connect to. Puppeteer will be familiar to people using other browser testing frameworks. You create an instance of Browser, open pages, and then manipulate them with Puppeteer's API. By default, Puppeteer downloads and uses a specific version of Chromium so its API is guaranteed to work out of the box. To use Puppeteer with a different version of Chrome or Chromium, pass in the executable's path when creating a Browser instance.Starting Price: Free -
7
Playwright
Playwright
Playwright supports all modern rendering engines including Chromium, WebKit, and Firefox. Test on Windows, Linux, and macOS, locally or on CI, headless or headed. Playwright waits for elements to be actionable prior to performing actions. It also has a rich set of introspection events. The combination of the two eliminates the need for artificial timeouts - the primary cause of flaky tests. Playwright assertions are created specifically for the dynamic web. Checks are automatically retried until the necessary conditions are met. Configure test retry strategy, capture execution trace, videos, screenshots to eliminate flakes. Browsers run web content belonging to different origins in different processes. Playwright is aligned with the modern browsers architecture and runs tests out-of-process. This makes Playwright free of the typical in-process test runner limitations.Starting Price: Free -

Nightwatch.js
Nightwatch.js
Nightwatch.js is an integrated, easy to use End-to-End testing solution for web applications and websites, written in Node.js. It uses the W3C WebDriver API to drive browsers and perform commands and assertions on DOM elements. Simple but powerful syntax which enables you to write tests very quickly, using Javascript (Node.js) and CSS or Xpath selectors. Typescript is supported as well. Built-in command-line test runner which runs the tests either sequentially or in parallel, with retries and implicit waits. Also supports grouping of test suites and tags. Manages automatically Selenium or WebDriver services (ChromeDriver, GeckoDriver, Edge, Safari) in a separate child process. Fluent and easy to work with Page Object Model support to better organise elements and sections, with support for both CSS or Xpath selectors.Starting Price: Free -

Mockito
Mockito
Mockito is a mocking framework that tastes really good. It lets you write beautiful tests with a clean & simple API. Mockito doesn’t give you hangover because the tests are very readable and they produce clean verification errors. Read more about features & motivations. Top 10 Java library across all libraries, not only the testing tools. In late 2013 there was an analysis made of 30.000 GitHub projects. Although Mockito reached number 9 in the main report, mockito-core and mockito-all are the same tool and therefore the factual position of Mockito is number 4, surpassing famous tools like Guava or Spring. Treat this study as an indicator of a big impact that Mockito makes every day on unit tests written in Java.Starting Price: Free -

MockK
MockK
Mocking is a technique to make testing code readable and maintainable. In three consequent articles, I would like to show the basics, features, and quirks of the MockK library. It is a new open-source library (github repository) focused on making mocking in Kotlin great. Injection first tries to match properties by name, then by class or superclass. Check the lookupType parameter for customization. Properties are injected even if private is applied. Constructors for injection are selected from the biggest number of arguments to lowest.Starting Price: Free -

Karate
Karate
Karate is the only open-source tool to combine API test automation, mocks, performance-testing and even UI automation into a single, unified framework. The BDD syntax popularized by Cucumber is language-neutral and easy for even non-programmers. Assertions and HTML reports are built-in, and you can run tests in parallel for speed. There’s also a cross-platform stand-alone executable for teams not comfortable with Java. You don’t have to compile code. Just write tests in a simple, readable syntax - carefully designed for HTTP, JSON, GraphQL and XML. And you can mix API and UI test automation within the same test script. It is worth pointing out that JSON is a ‘first-class citizen’ of the syntax such that you can express payload and expected data without having to use double-quotes and without having to enclose JSON field names in quotes. There is no need to ‘escape’ characters like you would have had to in Java or other programming languages.Starting Price: Free -

EarlGrey
EarlGrey
With the EarlGrey framework, you have access to enhanced synchronization features. EarlGrey automatically synchronizes with the UI, network requests, and various queues; but still allows you to manually implement customized timings, if needed. EarlGrey’s synchronization features help to ensure that the UI is in a steady state before actions are performed. This greatly increases test stability and makes tests highly repeatable. EarlGrey works in conjunction with the XCTest framework and integrates with Xcode’s Test Navigator so you can run tests directly from Xcode or the command line (using xcodebuild). The EarlGrey documentation for users is located in the EarlGrey/docs folder. To get started, review the EarlGrey features, check for backward compatibility, and then install/run EarlGrey with your test target. After everything is configured, take a look at the EarlGrey API and start writing your own tests.Starting Price: Free -

Serenity BDD
Serenity BDD
Serenity BDD helps you write cleaner and more maintainable automated acceptance and regression tests faster. Serenity also uses the test results to produce illustrated, narrative reports that document and describe what your application does and how it works. Serenity tells you not only what tests have been executed, but more importantly, what requirements have been tested. One key advantage of using Serenity BDD is that you do not have to invest time in building and maintaining your own automation framework. The aim of Serenity is to make it easy to quickly write well-structured, maintainable automated acceptance criteria, using your favourite BDD or conventional testing library. You can work with Behaviour-Driven-Development tools like Cucumber or JBehave, or simply use JUnit. You can integrate with requirements stored in an external source (such as JIRA or any other test cases management tool), or just use a simple directory-based approach to organise your requirements.Starting Price: Free -

Galen Framework
Galen Framework
Layout testing seemed always a complex task. Galen Framework offers a simple solution: test location of objects relatively to each other on page. Using a special syntax and comprehensive rules you can describe any layout you can imagine. Galen Framework runs well in Selenium Grid. You can set up your tests to run in a cloud like LambdaTest, or Sauce Labs, or BrowserStack so that you can even test your responsive websites on different mobile devices. Galen can run multiple tests in parallel which is also a nice time saver. Galen Framework is designed with responsiveness in mind. It is easy to set up a test for different browser sizes. Galen just opens a browser, resizes it to a defined size and then tests the page according to specifications. Using Galen Specs Language you are able to describe any complex layout including different screen sizes or browsers. It's not only easy to write, it is also easy to read it if you are unfamiliar with the language.Starting Price: Free -

behave
behave
Behavior-driven development (or BDD) is an agile software development technique that encourages collaboration between developers, QA and non-technical or business participants in a software project. We have a page further describing this philosophy. Behavior-driven development (or BDD) is an agile software development technique that encourages collaboration between developers, QA and non-technical or business participants in a software project. It was originally named in 2003 by Dan North as a response to test-driven development (TDD), including acceptance test or customer test driven development practices as found in extreme programming. BDD is a second-generation, outside–in, pull-based, multiple-stakeholder, multiple-scale, high-automation, agile methodology. It describes a cycle of interactions with well-defined outputs, resulting in the delivery of working, tested software that matters.Starting Price: Free -

SpecFlow
SpecFlow
SpecFlow makes test automation easier by turning it into a team effort and allowing every role to better use their skills. Don’t waste your time searching for the correct definition across your binding classes, just right-click and jump to the relevant code. Hooks (event bindings) can be used to perform additional automation logic at specific times, such as any setup required prior to executing a scenario. SpecFlow supports a dependency injection framework that is able to instantiate and inject context for scenarios. This allows you to group the shared state in context classes, and inject them into every binding class that needs access to that shared state.Starting Price: Free -

Selenide
Selenide
You don't need to think how to shut down browser, handle timeouts and StaleElement Exceptions or search for relevant log lines, debugging your tests. We are proud to claim that Selenide is so simple that you don't need to read tons of documentation. Selenium WebDriver is a great tool, but it’s not a tool for testing. It’s a tool for browser manipulation. There are several testing libraries around Selenium WebDriver. But it seems that they do not resolve the main problems of UI tests. Namely, instability of tests caused by dynamic content, JavaScript, Ajax, timeouts etc. Selenide was created to resolve these problems. First of all, Selenide makes your tests stable by resolving (almost) all Ajax/timing issues. We are proud to claim that Selenide is so simple that you don't need to read tons of documentation. The whole work with Selenide consists of three simple things!Starting Price: Free -
