big bang testing	larger systems because it may be hard to tell in which subsystem the defect lies when a failure occurs	An inappropriate approach to integration testing in which you take the entire integrated system and test it as a unit
incremental testing		A integration testing strategy in which you test subsystems in isolation, and then continue testing as you integrate more and more subsystems
