Answer
Integration tests are comprehensive but slower; unit tests are faster but narrower.
Integration tests check multiple components working together, typically slower because they involve more setup. Unit tests focus on individual components, providing quick feedback. In CI, balance is key: integration tests ensure system coherence, while unit tests provide rapid checks during development.
