Definition & Explanation

Integration testing comes into play once multiple logistics software modules—ERP, WMS, TMS, EDI interfaces—are combined, validating how they communicate and exchange data. It confirms that critical workflows such as order capture, inventory management, and shipment scheduling run seamlessly end to end across systems, and that error handling at interfaces works correctly—for instance when an inbound EDI message carries invalid commodity codes. Integration testing sits between unit testing, which examines individual code components in isolation, and end-to-end testing, which covers the full business workflow across all parties. In project practice it follows unit testing and paves the way for user acceptance testing.
