Sanity testing is a cursory testing; it is performed whenever a cursory testing is sufficient to prove the application is functioning according to specifications. This level of testing is a subset of regression testing. It normally includes a set of core tests of basic GUI functionality to demonstrate connectivity to the database, application servers, printers, etc.
Smoke Testing is non-exhaustive software testing, ascertaining that the most crucial functions of a program work, but not bothering with finer details.

regression testing - re-testing after fixes or modifications of the software or its environment. It can be difficult to determine how much re-testing is needed, especially near the end of the development cycle. Automated testing tools can be especially useful for this type of testing.

Monkey testing or Gorilla testing is same .Monkey testing is done to ensure that software works correctly in unexpectional situation

Hi nisha,

Sanity : Testing the stability of the application or build.stability means covering the basic functionality which we can further move for complete testing of the application.

Smoke : same as sanity testing, but we try to provide a reason to the developers why we have rejected the build.

Monkey Testing : It covers only the basic functionality of the application.

Thank You,
sunil.
