Tell me the situation where sanity test cases should pass and smoke test cases fail...?..

Answer / prabhu

First clear with sanity and smoke.

Smoke testing:
its also called as build verification test. As
soon as we get the build we are testing whether the build
is in testable condition or not.

Sanity testing:
Its testing the major functionalities in the
application. You ll go for sanity if u dont find enough
time to do full regression test.

so there is no chance for sanity to pass, if smoke fails.

Answer / ranjith nair

Sanity testing->Testing the application for the first
time.Or it is called an adhoc testing.Not in a position to
test the application in details.
Smoke testing-Testing only the major functionalities of the
application.Smoke testing is done when ever a new build is
happening.Or it is an example of regression test.Usually we
can use automation testing tools for performing smoke
testing.

Situation-->A new build has been released(New version).The
new changes implemented by the development team has been
tested and is working fine(Sanity testing).But due to the
new changes,Some existiong functionalities is getting failed
(Smoke testing).

sanity test checks the existence of functionality where as
smoke test checks whether functionality is working or not ..

since smoke test checks the functionalities work so the
test cases which passed during sanity test will sometime
fails.

Answer / umasubbu4u

We do sanity or smoke test when we receive the build for
the first time. Before accepting the build we test the
basic functionality of the build. This process is called
either sanity of smoke. Both are alomost similar.
