Software teams mostly find themselves working with three broad categories
of tests - unit, integration and functional (excluding technology
verification test categories like performance, load, stress etc.). Unit
tests indicate whether the code is doing things right. Functional tests
are complementary to - but quite different from unit tests. Functional
tests tell whether the completed application is working correctly and
providing the proper functionality.
