What is the exact diff between sanity and smoke test and who will do in real time?..

Answer / sahil mahajan

Smoke Testing : In smoke testing we will the major
functionality of the application to ensure that the
application is OK for further testing. It is a wide testing
to cover all the major functionality but not in depth.

Suppose we are checking a login window and we need a user id
and a password to login that window and after entering a
correct user id and password it will show a new information
page otherwise it will show error message by entering a
wrong user id and a password. Here I am pointing out that,
in case of password we need not to check with mix of
numerical and alpha-numerical values to find an error / bug,
we just need to enter a one password value to get error and
a one password to get next page.


Sanity Testing: In sanity testing, it depends upon our
project lead who will inform us to do a sanity testing or a
regression testing because both types of testing performs
if there is any kind of change / modification in a build.
Now I will come to exact point if we will perform sanity
testing then we need to test the modified / change build
only but it will like a deep kind of testing on modified
build. Example if there is any modification in login page
then we will test the login page only not the other pages
which will show after login...

Thanks,

Scenario A year ago we developed a standards compliant website for a client. Their site is very popular resulting in the client wanting to be able to track how it is being used by their users. The first part of this project is to create a Login function so that users can be identified on the website. The data supplied by users would have to be handled securely. You have been allocated this project to work on. You will be responsible for the task from start to finish and will be expected to give feedback to your manager. User expectations  The client wants their users to be able to login using a page that fits in with the website design.  Tom wants to access the website but doesn’t want his login information to be available to anyone else.  Paul doesn’t want to login to the website because he’s not a frequent user. Task Please provide some feedback on how you would do the following:-  Being the only Test Engineer on this task, what would your approach be for this requirement?  Identify the key areas for testing this page.  What tools if any, would you use to perform the testing, bearing in mind that the testing will be done without using an ‘automated test tool’.  Provide a sample test case that could be used for testing this page, for example as a word or Excel document.
