| Fact | PHPUnit | ScalaTest |
|---|---|---|
| Assertions | The manual documents assertions for values, exceptions, side effects, output, files, JSON, and XML. | The documented assertion helpers include assert, assertResult, intercept, compile checks, cancellation, and clues for failure messages. |
| Current release | PHPUnit 13 is listed as the current stable major version. | The install page identifies ScalaTest and Scalactic 3.2.20 as the latest release for Scala 2.10.0+, 2.11.0+, 2.12.0+, 2.13.0+, and 3.1.0+. |
| Purpose | PHPUnit is a testing framework for PHP. | ScalaTest is a testing tool for Scala, Scala.js, Scala Native, Dotty (Scala 3), and Java code. |
PHP developers looking for a framework to write and run tests may find PHPUnit suitable. Its assertions, test doubles and coverage reports support a range of testing needs.
ScalaTest suits developers and teams writing tests for Scala-family languages or Java who want a choice of testing styles and integrations. Teams using Scala 3 should note the stated SuperSafe plugin limitation.
