A balanced test suite is the difference between a stable app and a maintenance nightmare.
1The Base: Unit Testing
Unit tests provide immediate feedback. If you change a line of code and a unit test fails, you know exactly where the problem is. Isolation is their superpower.
2The Middle: Integration
Even if every unit works perfectly, they might fail when put together. Integration tests catch bugs in the 'glue' codeālike database queries or API contracts.
3The Peak: E2E
E2E tests give you the ultimate peace of mind. They prove that a user can actually sign up, log in, and buy a product. Use them sparingly for critical flows.
