What is the smoke testing and sanity testing..?what is the
difference?

Answer Posted / ramesh kr.

Smoke testing is conducted to ensure whether the most
crucial functions of a program are working, but not
bothering with finer details. (Such as build verification).

Sanity testing is a cursory testing, it is performed
whenever a cursory testing is sufficient to prove the
application is functioning according to specifications.
This level of testing is a subset of regression testing
