What is the difference between smoke and sanity testing?
and when we perform smoke testing and when we perform
sanity testing?

Answer Posted / chaitanya

HI Friends,
Smoke testing is the kind of testing that
is done by the white box testers ,generally this is done by
the developers before giving the developed application to
the black box testers.
Sanity testing is the kind of testing
done whether to check the application developed by the
developers is proper for detailed testing. This is done by
the black box testers. Here "PROPER" has four conditions,
1. Whether the application is installed properly in the
test environment or not,
2. Whether one is able to navigate all the pages or links
of the applications
3. Whether all the functionalities are available.
4. Whether connections with the database are established.

Lastly,, Sane in english means "Proper" SO checking the
application before the detailed testing is what is Sanity
Testing.
Hope you guys are clear on this.
