Smoke Testing and Sanity Testing

In this Post i'm going to explain what is Smoke Testing and Sanity Testing, well these two are very confusing hence need to understand properly.

Smoke Testing : * Smoke testing is a type of testing where we we actually test the most critical parts of the software before going for complete testing.

* Aim is to make sure critical parts work perfectly before doing full complete testing and we do this in order to save time.

* Smoke testing is scripted one means we write test cases and execute those test cases.

* Whenever testers get  build for testing then they do smoke testing before going for System or Functional Testing.

Sanity Testing : * Sanity testing is a type of testing where we test only those parts which has been changed or where bugs were there.

* Sanity testing is to check whether developer has applied some sanity while making changes and whether software works according to requirement or not.

* Sanity testing is unscripted one means we don't have to write test cases, we can directly start testing the software.

* Sanity testing is nothing but roughly testing the parts of the software and not thoroughly testing the parts of the software.
