Sanity Testing:
Its the first test/initial test that is done to check
weather the new software version is performing well enough
to accept it for a major testing effort. Ex: System not
hanging soon..
Smoke Testing:
It is performed after Sanity Test to check the weather all
the functionalities are available to perform the detailed
testing.

Both Sanity and Smoke Testing Comes under Build Verfication
Test.
Sanity test is used to check wether the build is Stable or
not.
Stability depends on some factors, they are
operatable, testable, Maintainable.
where as Smoke Testing is an extra shakeup in sanity
process. In this test, tester try to trouble shoots when
that build is not working before start testing.

Answer / dawood khan
Sanity testing
Sanity testing is further detail testing testing of the
application if we compare it with the smoke testing or we
can say its a subset of regression testing, and in this we
ensure weather the current version of the application is
functioning or not and we also check weather the build is
testable or not
Smoke testing
Smoke testing is use to test the main functionality of the
current version of the application and in it we ensure
weather the main functionality are working fine or not.
Note:
Common: Sanity and Smoke testing is performed when the time
is short to run the current application fully and in detail
and for the both core motive is same that the build or
current version of the app is testable or not...

Answer / deepa
Smoke test is to touch(test) the every part of the
application, it is wide testing.A smoke test is scripted
either using a written set of tests or automation test.
Sanity Test is only for test the few areas of application,
it is subset of regression testing.It is unscripted.
