Answer / priyanka agrawal

Smoke Testing: Software Testing done to ensure that whether
the build can be accepted for through software testing or
not. Basically, it is done to check the stability of the
build received for software testing.

Sanity testing: After receiving a build with minor changes
in the code or functionality, a subset of regression test
cases are executed that to check whether it rectified the
software bugs or issues and no other software bug is
introduced by the changes. Sometimes, when multiple cycles
of regression testing are executed, sanity testing of the
software can be done at later cycles after through
regression test cycles.
