There are some alternatives to JUnit that do similar things but offer enhanced 
functionality:
JTiger: http://www.jtiger.org/
TestNG: http://www.testng.org/

There's a comparison here: 
http://www.antwerkz.com/antwerkz/articles/testing/index.jsp

However, JUnit is quietly in development and JUnit 4, when it's released, will 
have many of the features that these alternative frameworks have introduced.


If you are working closely with users (or user representatives) then take a 
look at Fit ( http://fit.c2.com/ ) and FitNesse ( http://www.fitnesse.org/ ) - 
these are like JUnit for business people :-)  Your users can write test cases 
as tables of input data and expected outputs either in a Wiki or their 
favourite Microsoft Office tools. Great for those of you doing agile/XP-style 
collaboration with end-users as you end up doing a form of test-driven 
specification.

Currently I'm using the standard combination junit, htmlunit, and mock
objects to test my code but I was wondering how much success people have
had with things like jython or groovy for streamline test writing. i
mean, my tests are already pretty minimal due to refactoring and such
but has anyone seen any real improvement using other tools?
