Answer Posted / girishkumar

ANITHA, you are completely WRONG. SMOKE & SANITY TESTING
DONE BY TESTERS ONLY.

SMOKE TEST: Means at least software working or not with out
any run time issues.
SANITY TEST: Means Due to modification in the software
build, is there any most related modules are effected or
not. just like cross checking even if it was passed
previously, there may be a chance to effect by the modification.
EXAMPLE: i am a tester, developer released one software
build for testing, first i will Conduct SMOKE TEST means, i
am checking overall functionality of the software is ok or
not, Then i conduct Real testing, now i got one defect in my
app, then reported the defect to Defect tracking team, they
conformed that is BUG, Then they forward the defect to
Developer, then Developer fix the BUG and released Modified
Build, now again as a tester i will conduct SMOKE TEST once
again to check functionality of the software and then check
weather the BUG is fixed or not, if bug is fixed, then i
will conduct SANITY TEST. Means that, DUE TO MODIFICATION,
IS THERE ANY MOST RELATED MODULES ARE EFFECTED OR NOT, here
we will conduct previously passed test for conformation, if
a previous tests are passed then will go for Regression
Testing.
