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

Answer Posted / bhaskar

Build Aceptance testing or Build Verification testing or
Sanity testing:
It is a type of testing inwhich one will
conduct overall testing on the already released build
inorder to conform whether the build is proper or not for
conducting detailed testing.
Ususlly they check the following during this type of
testing

1. Whether the build can be properly installed in to the
environment or not
2. Whether one can naigate to all the parts of the
application or not
3. Whether all parts of the important features are
available or not
4. Whether the required connections are properly
established or not.

In some companies this is also called
as 'Smoke testing', but some compaies say that just before
releasing the build the developers will conduct overall
testing inorder to conform whether the build is proper or
not that is known as 'Smoke testing' and once the build is
released whether the test engineers are doing the build is
known as 'Build Acceptance testing or Build Verification
test or sanity testing'
