For example in Javascript, Kotlin and Swift index.js index.test.js index.mock.js LocationManager.kt LocationManager.mock.kt LocationManager.test.kt BasketHandler.swift BasketHandler.mock.swift BasketHandler.test.swift Integration tests check features or sub features, and may cover many source files, it’s better to place them in feature folders...
