What is the difference between Smoke & Sanity Testing.

Answer Posted / anu

both sanity and smoke testing are done to check whether the build is ready for testing and to check its stability.


But sanity testing is in depth testing that means it covers major and minor functionalities of an app.it is usually done by both developers and testers.this testing done at entry/exit stage of each phase.

smoke testing covers major functionalities and it can be done at any point.
