BizUnit is defined as a "Framework for Automated Testing of Distributed Systems.
However, I've never seen a catchy label to describe what sort of tests we create using this framework. They are not really “Unit Tests” that's for sure. "Integration Tests" might be a good definition, but I want a label that clearly separates it from the manual "System Integration Testing" phase of a project where real instances of the integrated systems are used.
Among some colleagues, we brainstormed some suggestions:
- Automated Integration Tests
- Stubbed Integration Tests
- Sandbox Integration Tests
- Localised Integration Tests
All give a good view of the sorts of tests that are being done. I think "Stubbed Integration Tests" is most catchy and descriptive. So I will use that until someone comes up with a better idea.
