B Correct answer
Explanation

Integration testing in the small tests interactions between modules or subsystems (option B). It focuses on interfaces between components after unit testing is complete. Option A describes unit testing, not integration. Option C is incorrect - test components (stubs, drivers) are used, not just live components. Option D describes integration testing in the large (system integration with external systems). 'In the small' means within the application boundary.
