I think smoke tests are important too, just to catch any major issues early.

Definitely integration tests! They mimic real user interactions best.

I practiced a question like this before, and I think integration tests are definitely the best fit here. They help ensure everything works as expected from the user's perspective.

I feel like unit tests are too low-level for this scenario. They focus on individual components, not the overall user experience with the API.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about smoke tests being more about checking if the basic functions work. That might not be enough for simulating user experience.

I think integration tests might be the right choice since they check how different parts of the API work together, which is similar to user interactions.
