Answer
Sanity testing:
Sanity Testing is an Initial effort to check whether the
application can be tested further without any interruption.
Basic GUI functionality, connectivity to database are
concentrated here.
Smoke Testing: It covers most crucial functions of the
application.Testing carried out check whether most crucial
functions of the application work fine or not?
Bug life cycle:
A Tester finds a defect and logs it. (But before you
log it, you must try to recreate it for 3 or 4 times so
that you are 100% sure that it is a bug)
The defect is now approved or disapproved by the Test Lead.
(If it is disapproved, then the test lead will come to you
ask for more details and you have explain to him why it is
a bug)
After the Test Lead approves the bug, it is now assigned to
a development Team Lead (or Development Manager). He/she
now assigns that bug to the concerned developer. The
developer now looks into the bug and fixes it. Once the fix
is ready, there will be another build ready to test. The
tester now tests the defect. It the defect is fixed, then
the tester closes the defect, if not then the test will
reopen it and same cycle starts.
Boundary value Analysis:
It has been observer that Program that work correctly for a
set of values. In Equivalence class fail on some special
values these values often lie on boundary of equivalence
class.
