Karma Alternatives

Karma is described as 'A simple tool that allows you to execute JavaScript code in multiple real browsers. Karma is not a testing framework, neither an assertion library. Karma just launches a HTTP server, and generates the test runner HTML file you probably already know from your favourite testing' and is an app in the development category. There are more than 10 alternatives to Karma for a variety of platforms, including Mac, Windows, Linux, Self-Hosted and Web-based apps. The best Karma alternative is Jest, which is both free and Open Source. Other great apps like Karma are Mocha, Vitest, Jasmine and AVA.
