MethodsIn French: Pyramide des tests

Test pyramid

Lots of unit tests, fewer integration tests, a few end-to-end tests.

The base of the pyramid is unit tests: fast, numerous, cheap. In the middle, integration and API tests. At the top, a few end-to-end tests on the critical journeys.

An inverted pyramid (mostly UI tests) gives a slow, fragile suite.
