JavaScript vs. Perl vs. Scala vs. TestNG Comparison Chart

Perl is a highly capable, feature-rich programming language with over 30 years of development. Perl is a highly capable, feature-rich programming language with over 30 years of development. Perl runs on over 100 platforms from portables to mainframes and is suitable for both rapid prototyping and large scale development projects. "Perl" is a family of languages, "Raku" (formerly known as "Perl 6") is part of the family, but it is a separate language which has its own development team. Its existence has no significant impact on the continuing development of "Perl". Perl includes powerful tools for processing text that make it ideal for working with HTML, XML, and all other mark-up and natural languages. Perl can handle encrypted Web data, including e-commerce transactions.

TestNG is a testing framework inspired from JUnit and NUnit but introducing some new functionalities that make it more powerful and easier to use, such as annotations, or the possibility to run your tests in arbitrarily big thread pools with various policies available (all methods in their own thread, one thread per test class, etc.). You can test that your code is multithread safe, there is flexible test configuration, support for data-driven testing (with @DataProvider), support for parameters, powerful execution model (no more TestSuite). There is a supported by a variety of tools and plug-ins (Eclipse, IDEA, Maven, etc.), it also embeds BeanShell for further flexibility, and there is default JDK functions for runtime and logging (no dependencies), and dependent methods for application server testing. TestNG is designed to cover all categories of tests, unit, functional, end-to-end, integration, etc.
