Abstract
Sanity check is a process which verifies that the software under development meets its basic functional requirements. In quality audits sanity check is consider as a major activity. It performs a quick test to check the main functionality of the software. Sanity check decides the completion of development phase and makes a go/no go decision to forward the software to testing phase. The depth of sanity check process varies in different scenarios and sometimes it is considered as a full quality audit. A proper and well prepared sanity check significantly reduce the time and cost of overall project. In this paper we proposed a new framework to assure the quality of sanity check process with prioritize set of activities.
