It's bizarre to me that we live in a world where whole machines and their networking stack can be spun up and virtualized and yet integration testing STILL actually has to go out and touch a real resource running on a different machine.

Yeah, obviously this isn't gonna work for embedded development, but not that many people have that specific problem. Is it really so hard to spin up ephemeral testing clusters on a single machine? Everywhere that I've seen it done, it's a horrible kludge of scripts and hacks that's almost as difficult to understand as the code under test.
