What is the need of smoke test even when unit test is done
by developers?

Answer Posted / melbourne bala

Unit testing.
it is used to check the single component or program.It is
usually done by software developer or white box tester.Each
and every lines should check atleast one time.the
programming knowledge is must.It is based on code.the
developer should check the loops ,arrays,etc.
Smoke testing
It is for test engineer work.after deployed the build from
software development team.He should check the higher
priority of function check,the very important functions not
working,he will send back the build to software
developer.sanity testing and smoke testing is not
different.advantage of the test is we can find the serious
issues and defect at early stage.
