Hi,
Smoke testing is performed right after the build is
delivered to test team. We check whether the build is
stable by going through all the major pages,
forms,links,butons etc. If the build is stable we move
ahaed and perform sanity testing. Sanity testing covers
entire build with thorough functionality checking. We do
extensive testing here by executing test cases.
If smoke testing fails build is revert back to the
development team.

Answer / archana
1) A smoke test is scripted--either using a written set of
tests or an automated test
1) A sanity test is usually unscripted.
2) A Smoke test is designed to touch every part of the
application in a cursory way. It's is shallow and wide.
2) A Sanity test is used to determine a small section of
the application is still working after a minor change.
3) Smoke testing will be conducted to ensure whether the
most crucial functions of a program work, but not bothering
with finer details. (Such as build verification).
3) 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.

Answer / anonymus
In short Sanity testing is done to test testablity of a
product or an application. Testablity means the application
or product should be able to be tested. Some examples of
testability is application should be undersatable, Should
be able to run, should be stable.In other words sanity is
done to confirm wheather a product or an application is
ready for testing or not.
Smoke testing is done to test the overall major
functionality of an application ofr a product.

Answer / dinesh
Smoke testing :
-------------
This ensures that the new build is working fine or not..if
its success then the build will be accepted otherwise it
would be rejected...In simple we can say sanity testing is
to ensure the Build.
Sanity Testing :
---------------
This is for starting the Testing process on a
application..This testing is populary known as environment
shakedown.It touches the End to End funcitonalities of the
application to be tested.If it fails the test execution
cant be performed otherwise we can go ahead with the test
execution..In simple we can say smoke testing is to give
the signal to start the test execution on a particular
application...
(Update me if i'm wrong...)
