BoxLang vs. Component Pascal vs. Java vs. cloverage Comparison Chart

Component Pascal is a general-purpose language in the tradition of Pascal, Modula-2, and Oberon. Its most important features are block structure, modularity, separate compilation, static typing with strong type checking (also across module boundaries), type extension with methods, dynamic loading of modules, and garbage collection. Type extension makes Component Pascal an object-oriented language. An object is a variable of an abstract data type consisting of private data (its state) and procedures that operate on this data. Abstract data types are declared as extensible records. Component Pascal covers most terms of object-oriented languages by the established vocabulary of imperative languages in order to minimize the number of notions for similar concepts. Complete type safety and the requirement of a dynamic object model make Component Pascal a component-oriented language.

Cloverage uses clojure.test by default. If you prefer use midje, pass the --runner :midje flag. (In older versions of Cloverage, you had to wrap your midje tests in clojure.test's deftest. This is no longer necessary.) For using eftest, pass the --runner :eftest flag. Optionally you could configure a runner passing :runner-opts with a map in project settings. Other test libraries may ship with their own support for Cloverage external to this library; see their documentation for details.
