Treat integration as a dependency
Confirm data formats, authentication, limits, and failure behavior for connected systems. An integration should have test cases and an owner rather than remain a vague item in the feature list. Record the decision as well as the numbers behind it.
Handle duplicate requests, edits, permissions, and audit needs. Confirm how records are recovered after a failed operation. Explain uncertainty when the available data is limited.
Release testing
Test representative devices, permissions, interrupted connections, and failed inputs. Define acceptance checks with the people who will use the product. Review both successful actions and errors before launch.
Agree monitoring, update responsibilities, dependency maintenance, and support limits. A launch plan should include how defects and user feedback will be prioritized. Test the important customer action before publishing a change.
