Abstract
Functional testing is about building the right code. It is as important as unit testing, but it gets far less press. It breaks down into the three rough categories of acceptance testing, integration testing, and performance testing. I won’t examine performance testing at all, and I’ll only discuss integration testing in passing. This chapter’s real meat is acceptance testing using PyFit, a functional and integration testing tool. So what is integration testing, and how do integration tests differ from acceptance tests?
