Answer Posted / sudha
• A sanity test is a narrow regression test that
focuses on one or a few areas of functionality. Sanity
testing is usually narrow and deep.
• A sanity test is usually unscripted.
• A Sanity test is used to determine a small section
of the application is still working after a minor change.
• Sanity testing is a cursory testing, it is
performed whenever a cursory testing is sufficient to prove
the application is functioning according to specifications.
This level of testing is a subset of regression testing.
• Sanity testing is to verify whether requirements
are met or not, checking all features breadth-first.
• Smoke testing originated in the hardware testing
practice of turning on a new piece of hardware for the
first time and considering it a success if it does not
catch fire and smoke. In software industry, smoke testing
is a shallow and wide approach whereby all areas of the
application without getting into too deep, is tested.
• A smoke test is scripted, either using a written
set of tests or an automated test
• A Smoke test is designed to touch every part of the
application in a cursory way. It’s shallow and wide.
• Smoke testing is conducted to ensure whether the
most crucial functions of a program are working, but not
bothering with finer details. (Such as build verification).
• Smoke testing is normal health check up to a build
of an application before taking it to testing in depth.
