Difference between smoke testing and sanity test ?????????
Answer Posted / anmol
In software development, the sanity test determines whether
it is reasonable to proceed with further testing. Software
sanity tests are commonly conflated with smoke tests. A
smoke test determines whether it is possible to continue
testing, as opposed to whether it is reasonable. A software
smoke test determines whether the program launches and
whether its interfaces are accessible and responsible (for
example, the responsiveness of a web page or an input
button). If the smoke test fails, it is impossible to
conduct a sanity test. In contrast, the ideal sanity test
exercises the smallest subset of application functions
needed to determine whether the application logic is
generally functional and correct (for example, an interest
rate calculation for a financial application). If the
sanity test fails, it is not reasonable to attempt more
rigorous testing. Both sanity tests and smoke tests are
ways to avoid wasting time and effort by quickly
determining whether an application is too flawed to merit
any rigorous testing
