 - **Build, Verify and Package**: This job sets up the build environment, validates the Bicep template and packages the integration tests.
 - **Deploy to Azure**: This job provisions the Azure infrastructure and deploys the packaged applications to the created resources.
-- **Execute Integration Tests**: This job runs automated [integration tests](#integration-tests) on the deployed resources to verify correct functionality.
+- **Verify Deployment**: This job runs automated [integration tests](#integration-tests) on the deployed resources to verify correct functionality.
 - **Clean Up Resources**: This job removes all deployed Azure resources.  
 
   By default, cleanup runs automatically after the deployment. This can be disabled via an input parameter when the workflow is triggered manually.
