Question { TCS, 20454 }

What is the smoke testing and sanity testing..?what is the
difference?

Answer

Smoke
Sanity


1
Smoke testing originated in the hardware testing practice
of turning on a new piece of hardware for the first time
and considering it a success if it does not catch fire and
smoke. In software industry, smoke testing is a shallow
and wide approach whereby all areas of the application
without getting into too deep, is tested.
A sanity test is a narrow regression test that focuses on
one or a few areas of functionality. Sanity testing is
usually narrow and deep.

2
A smoke test is scripted--either using a written set of
tests or an automated test
A sanity test is usually unscripted.

3
A Smoke test is designed to touch every part of the
application in a cursory way. It's is shallow and wide.
A Sanity test is used to determine a small section of the
application is still working after a minor change.

4
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).
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.

5
Smoke testing is normal health check up to a build of an
application before taking it to testing in depth.


sanity testing is to verify whether requirements are met
or not,

checking all features breadth-first.

How does winrunner evaluates test results?

Answer

Answer:
Following each test run, WinRunner displays the results
in a report. The report details all the major events that
occurred during the run, such as checkpoints, error
messages, system messages, or user messages. If mismatches
are detected at checkpoints during the test run, you can
view the expected results and the actual results from the
Test Results window.
