I need the diff between sanity and smoke, not the defnition
of smoke testing. Anyway thanks for posting answers

smoke test :testing the major functionality when ever a 
build or setup or moved to testing env .so that by means of 
which u will be knowing further testing is possibale or not.

The difference is Smoke testing is conducted on new Built 
where as snaity test is also conducted to test basic 
functionality but on already failed smoke tests.

smoke testing: It is performed by developers before 
releasing the application to testing team.In this they 
verify basic functionality of an application

sanity testing: After receiving the application test 
engineer VALIDATES basic functionality of an application 
with help of checked list to estimate stability.

Ex: For login screen 
Smoke testing is only test whether the user is able to 
login or not .
And Sanity testing is to test text field lenght,datatype of 
text,which page it takes

Smoke testing- This term came from Electronic Industry 
where if ther is a shor circuit then is should produce the 
smoke.
Sanity testing- This is the min no of test case that needs 
to be executed before moving to the next level of testing.
Ex- If you are not able to login even after entering the 
correct id/passwd that means the sanity test fails

By Using Descriptive Programming we can start the qtp 
scripts.

there is no need of Build.

You cannot do any test when the build is not ready, because
we perform testing on build.  When build is not available,
how can we test and what can we test ?

Before the build is released, we get ready to test the build
by writing test scripts in Descriptive Programming and by
using prototype of the application.  When build is released,
we execute our test scripts on the build.

If you want to test the build, you definitely need the
build.  If you want to get ready to test the build, you can
write descriptive programming.

You have two alternatives. One is to create a stored 
procedure that executes the procedure under development. It 
will call the procedure with every combination of input 
parameters possible. The second is to use the command 
window as a client, and call the procedures from there. 
This re-routes the server's error messages to the command 
line, where you can trap them to a file and read them 
outside Query Analyzer.

hello
which ever the code you have written will be doing 
cancatenation by accepting as characters.
if you provide inputs as a="abc" and b="xyz" then output 
will be "abcxyz" right.

if you add two numbers you can go for this below code
function sum(a,b)
c=a+b
msgbox c
end function

calling the function
sum 2,3 then you will get output as 5

hi

Use CINT Function:: correct code is

Dim a, b, c
a =cint( inputbox("enter the a "))
b =cint( inputbox("enter the b "))
c = a + b
msgbox c


send mail if you have any query:

Hi,

 prasad's code was right.. but we should pass values for the
function sum
dim a,b,c
function sum(a,b)
c=a+b
msgbox c
end function
x=sum(3,2)

acceptance testing is done by the user and the manufacturer
of the software or you can say by the client to check
whether the system is working as per his/her requirements.
Its a kind of a black box testing but not done by
professionals (Software testers).It is often referred to as
a(n) functional test, beta test, QA test, application test,
confidence test, final test, or end user test

The tester should try to reproduce the defect again. If the 
tester able to reproduce the defect then he/she should ask 
the developer to try reproduce the defect in testing 
environment instead of developing environment and then ask 
them to fix it.

Please let me know if I am correct or wrong.

as the defect is rejected, once again execute the 
application to check whether it is a defect or not. if at 
all we find the same defect once again then check for the 
requirements that are with the development department and 
compare it with the requirements that are with us. may be 
some times the altered requirement document will not reach 
the testing department as soon as they reached the 
development department.

One solution is as kiranmayi said we have to ask him to 
execute in test environment instead of development 
environment

Other solution is, if it is possible to share your desktop 
with developer then do so by providing the user name and 
password. Now ask the developer to give a try on your 
machine, if he is able to reproduce the bug then try to 
find out the root cause why he was not able to reproduce on 
his machine. (Reasons can be many like Bug is OS dependent, 
browser dependent etc).

Exactly Remo. Also one thing, rarely this types of bugs are 
reproducable. Because this bug is for perticular OS, 
browser or for that user (Email) only. 

So tester can do one thing, he can provide taht email id, 
password, name of OS, browser (like IE, FF, Netscape, 
Saffari etc), steps to follow...etc

use invoke function

Navdeep,
If u dont know exact answer, plz dont post answers.
before posting answers plz. verify once with others.

dim ie1, ie2
set ie1=createobject("Internet Explorer.Application")
ie1.visible=true
ie1.navigate"http:\\localhoast\enquiry\index"
set ie2=createobject("Internet Explorer.Application")
ie2.visible=true
ie2.navigate"http:\\localhoast\registration\index"

I dont think the answer given by you is correct.  You are 
opening two urls in two browsers(not single browser).  
Also, there should be no space between Internet and 
Explorer in the createobject function.  It should read 
createobject("InternetExplorer.Application").

Internet Explorer supports opening only one URL at a time 
within the same browser; however, Mozilla Firefox supports 
opening N number of URLs within the same browser using File-
>New Tab.

Let me know if you need any further information.

A memory leak is the gradual loss of available computer 
memory when a program (an application or part of the 
operating system) repeatedly fails to return memory that it 
has obtained for temporary use. As a result, the available 
memory for that application or that part of the operating 
system becomes exhausted and the program can no longer 
function.
