Answer
They can lead to tightly coupled code and slower feedback loops.
Extensive integration testing can cause developers to design systems that are harder to test in isolation, leading to tightly coupled components. This slows down feedback loops because tests take longer to run and are harder to maintain. In an e-commerce system, over-reliance on integration tests might result in complex test setups that mimic production environments too closely.
