Sanity Testing

Sanity testing is a critical subset of regression testing performed to ensure that a specific function or bug fix is working correctly after a software update or change. Unlike comprehensive regression testing, which assesses the entire application, sanity testing focuses on verifying particular aspects or functionalities to confirm that recent modifications haven’t introduced new issues. This type of testing is essential for validating that the changes made do not negatively impact existing functionality and that the specific issues have been resolved effectively. It serves as a preliminary check before more extensive testing procedures are carried out, ensuring that fundamental aspects of the software perform as expected.
