> (testing taxonomy is bad) So true, it is terrible! What I say is: Unit tests - small tests that show the intent of one line of code or small set of lines, what the developer thought it was meant to do - can't prove correctness of an entire process Integration tests - test one specific process works (login success, login fail, etc.) starts to prove correctness of one part of an application Acceptance tests - larger, test that processes interact together and prove that multiple processes work Production tests - (roll out to x users and monitor or something similar) - prove that the entire application works, in production. Tests go from: Small to large, fast to slow, no risk to complete risk
