Tell exact difference b/w Smoke and Sanity testing with example?..

Answer / rakesh nelapati 9885468218

SAnity and smoke both are same .there is the slight
difference.
Intial build is sanity.
Rest of other build is smoke.
1)sanity checks the major functionality of the application
when a build occurs.that means to verify the stability of
the build.that can be a build but only the intial build.
2)smoke checks the major functionality of the application
when a new build occurs.that means to verify the stability
of the build.that can be a build except the intial build.

Answer / satish

Generally, a smoke test is scripted (either using a written
set of tests or an automated test), whereas a sanity test is
usually unscripted.

Smoke Test
----------
In software testing, a smoke test is a collection of written
tests that are performed on a system prior to being accepted
for further testing. This is also known as a build
verification test.

Sanity Test
-----------
A classic example of this in programming is the hello world
program. If a person has just set up a computer and a
compiler, a quick sanity test can be performed to see if the
compiler actually works.



correct me if I am wrong....
