Note: This release is in preview. Features described here don’t become generally available until the latest general availability date that Salesforce announces for this release. Before then, and where features are noted as beta, pilot, or developer preview, we can’t guarantee general availability within any particular time frame or at all. Make your purchase decisions only on the basis of generally available products and features.

IntegrationTest Annotation (Developer Preview)

Use the IntegrationTest annotation to mark both classes and methods that are used in integration testing.

The Apex Integration Tests feature is available as a developer preview in scratch orgs in Summer ’26 (API version 67.0). The feature isn’t generally available unless or until Salesforce announces its general availability in documentation or in press releases or public statements. All commands, parameters, and other features are subject to change or deprecation at any time, with or without notice. Don't implement functionality developed with these commands or tools in your production package.

Note

A class annotated with @IntegrationTest can only contain integration test methods and @TearDown methods. You can't mix @IntegrationTest and @IsTest annotations on the same class.

Integration test methods cannot be called from non-test contexts or from @IsTest test methods. However, integration tests can call methods in @IsTest utility classes, for example, shared test data factories.
