Test Pyramid

The Test Pyramid is a concept in software testing that describes the relationship between different types of tests and their scope. It is a hierarchical structure that categorizes tests based on their level of detail and granularity. The pyramid shape represents the relative number of tests at each level, with the base of the pyramid containing the most tests and the top of the pyramid containing the fewest tests.

Types of Tests

The Test Pyramid consists of three main types of tests:

• Unit tests: These tests are the most granular and test individual units of code, such as functions or classes. They are typically written by developers and are used to ensure that the code is working as expected.
• Integration tests: These tests test the interactions between different components of the system. They are typically written by testers and are used to ensure that the components work together as expected.
• End-to-end tests: These tests test the entire system from start to finish. They are typically written by testers and are used to ensure that the system is working as expected from the user's perspective.
