Are monkey testing & gorilla testing same? If not, then
what is the difference between these two?
Answer Posted / lakshmanaraj bg
Monkey Testing and Gorilla testing are not same.
Monkey testing - an unflattering term used to describe inexperienced people "banging" on a terminal. Often used to describe testing by staff who have trouble finding their butt with both hands.
Gorilla testing - used to describe repetitive, boring manual testing that a tester has already done a hundred times and could do in their sleep. As in "a trained gorilla could execute these tests". Often a sign that testing needs to be automated.
In simple term it can be referred as following below,
Gorilla Testing - you have a real short window of time to test and X number of resources (typically experienced QA). You hit the app hard, with everyone focused on core functionality and critical paths a "typical" user would take through the app. Unfortunately, this is still all too common today.
Monkey Testing - mundane testing that you have to do when your company is too cheap to buy you an automation tool to do it for you. It's a huge waste of senior tester's time, but usually no other resources are available.
