What is difference between smoke testing and sanity testing? In simplest manner.....

Answer / anand

Hi

Smoke Testing - Once new build is submitted to testers for
testing, testers usually perform smoke test on new build in
order to verify if build is acceptable for further testing.
In smoke testing, you are not bothered about functionality
but things like none of the links are broken, no page is
displaying Error-404 (web based application) and
application is in stable state.

Sanity Testing - Once Testing team is done with their all
levels of testing and ready to submit the application for
production, testers usually perform sanity tests before
submitting application to production. In sanity testing you
perform full testing to ensure that nothing has been left
out. Sanity check is done taking into consideration all
functional, integration and regression test cases.

Answer / pradip

Sanity Testing - Testing the build is in the sane
(position) of testing or not.
Sanity testing is carried out by Test Lear or Tester before
starting actual detailed testing of the new build. In other
words we can say that deciding whether to accept the build
for testing or not.

Smoke Testing - Testing of application without following
any pattern. Smoke testing is generally done by Project
Lead / Project Manager or Client - just to check whether
all major features are working properly or not.

Note : Sanity Testing and Smoke Testing are totally
different terms and are not same.

Answer / santoshnathan

Smoke testing:In simple terms we can say that checking the
application whether complete functionalities are covered or
not in order to perform detailed testing on the application

Santiy Testing:In simple terms we can say that,checking the
application whether it is stable or not (OR) checking
behaviour of the application.here we are not performing any
functionality testing.We just looking whether the
application is moving softly without any interruption.

I hope u cleared.

What is difference between smoke testing and sanity testing? In simplest manner.....

Answer / kumar

Sanity testing - Checking the initial build
roughly....whether all the windows or pages are working or
not...just a rough check of the build.

Smoke testing - checking the build by entering some values
for that...

Sanity + smoke testing is called - Tester acceptance
testing.

Usually tester performs these tests and if build is
suceeded then he will accept the build and will start the
testing process.

What is difference between smoke testing and sanity testing? In simplest manner.....

Answer / gouri

BOTH ARE SAME ONLY(But depending on the company
specifications, )
To check whether the build is proper for conducting a
detailed testing or not. For that we need to check

- Whether the build is properly installed into the
environment or not
- Whether all important objects are available or properly
arranged or not
- Whether the connections between the pages are established
properly or not
- Whether one can navigate through all the pages or not

1: If the above process, done by the Testing people after
releasing the build that is sanity testing(also called as
build acceptance or build verification testing)

2: If the above process, done by the Developers before
releasing the build that is smoke testing

Answer / bharath.c.k

Actually there is no differents between SMOKE TESTING &
SANATY TESTING..... both are similar

Before Testing an Application,
tester should install d developed application in his
computer and check if it is working or not ,, i.e without
using any test techniques. If it is working right then the
application should be accepted for testing with using the
prior test techniques...
