Spek is a specification-style test framework for Kotlin on the JVM, supporting BDD/TDD-style test writing with a DSL. It provides a runner and IDE integration for executing specification suites.

Use cases

  • write bdd-style tests in kotlin
  • specification framework for kotlin projects
  • run tdd specs on the jvm
  • structure tests with given-when-then style
  • kotlin test dsl alternative to junit

When to choose

  • you prefer BDD/specification-style tests in Kotlin
  • you want a JetBrains-originated Kotlin test DSL

When to avoid

  • you need a framework under very active development
  • you prefer mainstream Kotlin test libraries like Kotest or JUnit 5
