Component Testing

Component Testing is a type of software testing that focuses on evaluating individual, isolated components or modules of an application. The primary goal is to ensure each unit of the software functions correctly on its own before it is integrated with other parts of the system.

Example: A developer creates a new feature for a news app that allows users to save articles. Before this feature is integrated into the main app, the developer would perform component testing by writing tests that confirm the "save article" function works as expected. This test would verify that the function correctly adds the article to the user's saved list without needing to run the full application or interact with the user interface.
