What do you mean by Sanity Testing?

Answer Posted / anandpasunoori

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.
