Is it common to write integration tests before writing unit tests?

When tasked with developing against a third party API, the first thing I do is code a prototype (integration test, if you will) to obtain the expected / desired result. I then create some unit tests that enforce that expectation and refactor the prototype into the actual code I will use moving forward.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
