C Correct answer
Explanation

Integration testing in the small focuses on combining software units and testing their interfaces. The main purpose of the integration strategy is to determine the order and combinations in which modules should be integrated - whether incrementally (bottom-up, top-down, sandwich) or all at once (big bang). It specifies which modules to combine when and how many at once. Testing individual modules adequately is unit testing, and testing external system interfaces is integration testing in the large.
