The truth is that, for most development teams, there is only one instance of the development database, and every build is an "integrated" deployment, wether is should be or not....
In my experience, that WAS the case but many development teams have moved on to at least a development database and a Continuous Integration database.
Some others have individual development databases too, although that needs a slicker process to ensure that it is easy to keep the developers' local databases synchronised with the source code. Although this really needs tooling and configuration.
