What is the exact diff between sanity and smoke test and who will do in real time?

Answer Posted / sahil mahajan

Smoke Testing : In smoke testing we will the major
functionality of the application to ensure that the
application is OK for further testing. It is a wide testing
to cover all the major functionality but not in depth.

Suppose we are checking a login window and we need a user id
and a password to login that window and after entering a
correct user id and password it will show a new information
page otherwise it will show error message by entering a
wrong user id and a password. Here I am pointing out that,
in case of password we need not to check with mix of
numerical and alpha-numerical values to find an error / bug,
we just need to enter a one password value to get error and
a one password to get next page.


Sanity Testing: In sanity testing, it depends upon our
project lead who will inform us to do a sanity testing or a
regression testing because both types of testing performs
if there is any kind of change / modification in a build.
Now I will come to exact point if we will perform sanity
testing then we need to test the modified / change build
only but it will like a deep kind of testing on modified
build. Example if there is any modification in login page
then we will test the login page only not the other pages
which will show after login...

Thanks,

Correct me if I am wrong
