Here are the differences you can see:
SMOKE TESTING:
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.
2)In software industry, smoke testing is a shallow and wide
approach whereby all areas of the application without
getting into too deep, is tested.
3)A smoke test is scripted, either using a written set of
tests or an automated test
4)A Smoke test is designed to touch every part of the
application in a cursory way. It’s shallow and wide.
5)Smoke testing is conducted to ensure whether the most
crucial functions of a program are working, but not
bothering with finer details. (Such as build verification).
6)Smoke testing is normal health check up to a build of an
application before taking it to testing in depth.
SANITY TESTING:
1)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 sanity test is usually unscripted.
3)A Sanity test is used to determine a small section of the
application is still working after a minor change.
4)Sanity testing is a cursory testing, it is performed
whenever a cursory testing is sufficient to prove the
application is functioning according to specifications.
5)Sanity testing is a subset of regression testing.
6)Sanity testing is to verify whether requirements are met
or not, checking all features breadth-first.
Hope these points will help you to clearly understand the
Smoke and sanity tests and will help to remove any
confusion.
