Maintenance: write end-to-end tests for the utility

[ijemmy]

Description of the feature request

Problem statement
Before a Powertools utility can be considered production ready it needs to have e2e tests implemented and running every time a new feature or release is added.

Summary of the feature
This action item tracks the activities and changes needed to integrate the new utility in the e2e tests, which high level and at the time of writing consist of:

• Write the e2e tests cases and corresponding functions
• Optionally implement any helper needed
• Add the new utility in the workflow that runs the tests (related to Maintenance: integrate utility with CI/CD merge process #1097)

Code examples
N/A

Benefits for you and the wider AWS community
Confidence that the utility has been tested in a real AWS Lambda execution environment.

Describe alternatives you've considered
N/A

Additional context
All utilities have extensive end to end test cases that aim at testing the different features and usages in a real AWS environment with real resources, permissions, and runtimes.

After discussing, it seems that after merging #1416 it would be a good time to start working on the integration tests for Idempotency.

As discussed, while testing, please also check whether the following issues can be closed or not; if not please consider commenting under them to report the missing delta:

• Feature request: idempotent function wrapper #1305
• Feature request: idempotent decorator for Lambda handler #1306

Also, consider checking if it makes sense to move to commons the code that provisions the DynamoDB table in parameters so that we can reuse it here.
