Sanity (Qualification) Testing

Overview
Qualification (Sanity) testing is conducted to ensure that the build / code handed over to QA team is qualified to perform further Functional/Integration testing. In order to perform functional testing on the build / code; all the major functionality must be accessible and there are no obvious errors on main pages. Objective of sanity testing is to validate the testability of the system under consideration to check all the major functionality is accessible and there are no obvious errors. Testing will be performed based on the approved sanity test scripts. A round of qualification test shall be performed after a build is completed and QA is notified.

Entry Criteria

Successful completion of unit testing of all the application modules involved with minimal or no errors. Unit testing log or Unit testing status report from the dev team should be received prior start of the sanity test.


Success Criteria

Successful completion of the tests without any failures and within acceptable time allocation. If any of the modules and/or major dependent functionalities fails during the qualification testing, QA will determine the testability of the system. QA lead will perform discussion on the same with Project Manager and Dev lead. In agreement with PM and Dev Lead, QA lead can partially accept the QA build or reject the build.
