After creating unit and component tests, we have verified all the functionalities inside the microservices. However, we still need to test the interaction with other services, external data stores, and caches. In microservices-based architecture integration, tests are treated differently than they are in monolithic applications. Because all the relationships between internal modules have been tested through the component tests, we have tested only those modules that interact with external components.
