Answer / gunjan
Informal testing is done by a coder before he gives files to
the testing team.The coder himself tests his codes in an
informal way.there is no procedure of informal testing.the
coder also uses automation tools for unit testing and
integration testing.
On the other hand formal testing is done by the testing
team.The testing team follows the formal procedure of
testing the files.They make test cases,run tests and then
log the bugs in the bug tracking tools.

Answer / m.ramani chandra
After smoke testing we are sending reporting bugs to manager
or developer,so they can fix the bugs called formal testing.
After smoke testing we may forgot to send bugs report to
either manager or developer, so they couldn't fix the bugs
called informal testing.
