As integration projects involve many different applications. This poses both organizational and technology challenges. Organizationally, teams need to think not just about their code, but how it affects both input and output components. In most cases application development teams don't have the vision or the technology to validate their systems operation in the overall enterprise. The entire verification responsibility of EAIis in the hands of testing team and hence the team should be well equipped with the thorough understanding of handshaking applications. |

Complex business scenario comprising of the integrated applications makes the EAI testing challenging. Tester should have adequate knowledge about the existing systems as well as complete understanding about the workflow of the handshaking between the applications. Also security related issues e.g. visibility of the sensitive data passing from one application to another is also of a great concern and a major challenge in EAI testing. |

Receiving the relevant message with correct timestamp can be a major checkpoint in EAI testing. Usuage of tools like Toad, which fires SQL queries, to fetch the required data can be an added advantage. |

Integration project architecture is message based and the failure points are generally in the messages, hence test design should focus on the messages and message failure, which require good understanding of system architecture and the interfaces. Testers should be technically capable to understand the system design and architecture.

Since most of the testing tools are focused on the functionality testing and performance testing of applications, developers need to create stubs or elaborate error-prone traces for testing purpose. Some products provides test stub and test harness exclusively for Integration testing using their products.
