Answer / subbu

Sanity testing is done whenever the new build release. we
have to test for the major functionality of the application
which could stop our testing part continuation.

If it fails, then we should not continue with our testing
part. For the eg of telephone, If we check the
functionality like while lifting the receiver, it should
give the dial tone. if it fails, then its waste of time to
continue with the testing phase.

Also called as smoke testing.

Answer / dhanu

A subset of all defined/planned test cases that cover the
main functionality of a component or system, to
ascertaining that the most crucial functions of a program
work,but not bothering with finer details. A daily build
and smoke test is among industry best
practices

Answer / rekha

sanity testing is to check the functionality of the system
to detrmine its working or not.Its a initial stage of
testing .for this the application should be stable
otherwise further testing cant continue.

Answer / chitra

smoke testing. It is done to test that whether the build is
stable for further testing or not.
for sanity testing of telephone

Answer / aditya charan

whenever the tester founds the bug, he will inform to the
developers about the bug and to fix it. the developer than
fixes the bug and sends to the tester, this process of
fixing the bug and sending the new version to the tester is
called Build.
the tester has to test whether the major functionality of
the application is working good or stopping us from testing
is called as sanity testing.

example of telephone is common and u may refer from above
examples.

thank you.

Answer / govardhan

Sanity Testing:
1. Shallow and wide testing.
2. No indepth functionality testing.

Sanity means that, normal testing to verify that whether
the build is fit for further testing or not?
Eg.1.
From GUI perspective, we need to test whether all links are
working fine or not (any broken links?), i.e. if I click on
one link, whether the page is taking me to that particular
page or not?

Eg.2.
In GUI, we need to test that, whether the help is
documented properly or not? i.e. if the user is stuck any
point of time, and if help is clicked, whether the page is
navigating to the exact help context or not?

Eg.3.
As per installation is concerned, we need to verify,
whether the build is properly getting installed or not?
Whether the build is compatible (supports for upgradation
and degradation of other versions) or not?

Eg.4.
If CLI Menus are theer, we need to make sure that, no main
menus and the child menus are missing.

In a word, we can say that, Usability (GUI), Compatibility,
Installation, CLI will all comes in to picture for the
sanity to be done.

2.)sanity testing is done on the built is released by the
development team,
3.)Checking the new built weather it is tested in further
or not without any interruption or discontinuity.
4.)Quick checking of the basic functionality of the
application connectivity with the database can be done here.

Answer / nivedita

Sanity Testing is something like smoke Testing.Whenever new build comes test Engineers starts with Sanity Testing.It includes testing the basic critical feature of the product before doing thorough testing on the product.
This testing is generally without Test script or Test cases. We do this testing to ensure our requirements are met or not.
