Smoke Testing

  Although there are many steps involved in building the perfect software, the most important step is "Testing".   Software must be tested to ensure that it is reliable, efficient, and effective.   These are the basic concepts of testing.   These terms are often used but there are some misconceptions.   Let's explore Sanity Testing Vs Smoke Testing and their benefits. Before we discuss Sanity Testing Vs Smoke Testing let's first define what sanity testing is. What is Sanity Testing? Let's start by understanding software build in order to understand sanity tests.   Software projects often contain thousands of source code files.   It can be difficult and time-consuming to create an executable software program from these source codes files.   Software Build is the process of creating executable programs. This is done to verify that new module additions to an already existing software build work as expected. It can then be passed to the next l...

Today, quality products are what matter to enterprises. Software testing plays an essential role in achieving this.   There are many types of software testing methods, including unit testing and integration testing, system tests, smoke testing, sanity, functional, non-functional, and others.   Smoke testing is one of the most prominent among all these software testing methods. The name smoke testing comes from hardware repair systems, where a smoke test on pipelines is done to determine if they are functioning properly.   This smoke test can also be used to test if a new version of software is installed and tested. This form of testing is also known as build verification, or build acceptance.   This should be the first type of software testing to be performed after any code updates or new code deployments are made.         Smoke testing is basically a quick regression test of major functionality. It shows that the product can be test...
