what is smoke testing? what is sanity testing?

Answer Posted / raj_rex

SMOKE TEST :
Smoke testing is considerd as
built level test.Each time the test team receives a new
build(new version of program),an initial test is performed
to determine that the most crucial functions of the program
works and the build is stable enough and can be considered
for further testing.

SANITY TEST :
Sanity testing is considered as
release level testing.When software is ready to be shiped
to client and we want to finally cheek if everything is
fine and working as per requirement.It's a sub set of
Regressing testing -a group of test cases are executed to
cheek it is indeed working according to specification
(requirement).

I hope this will do.But somebody may not agry with me as
this defination will vary company to company... but i think
this is the basic defination...
