Answer
Integration tests involve more components, making them slower.
Integration tests evaluate how different parts of an application work together, often involving databases, file systems, or network calls, which take more time than isolated unit tests. For instance, testing a service method that accesses a database will be slower than testing a simple method that adds two numbers.
