  The Son Of X-Shooter (SOXS) will be the specialized facility to observe any
transient event with a flexible scheduler at the ESO New Technology Telescope
(NTT) at La Silla, Chile. SOXS is a single object spectrograph offering
simultaneous spectral coverage in UV-VIS (350-850 nm) and NIR (800-2000 nm)
wavelength regimes with an average of R~4500 for a 1arcsec slit. SOXS also has
imaging capabilities in the visible wavelength regime. Currently, SOXS is being
integrated at the INAF-Astronomical Observatory of Padova. Subsystem- and
system-level tests and verification are ongoing to ensure and confirm that
every requirement and performance are met. In this paper, we report on the
integration and verification of SOXS as the team and the instrument prepare for
the Preliminary Acceptance Europe (PAE).
