I really like the MELPA model of packaging directly from git. It solves the problem of forgetting to release something -- just merge a PR and you're done. It also makes version number bumps much less important.

Integration tests are inherently scary. You want to make them as similar as possible to your production environment, which massively increases the risk that one day they will talk to production directly.
