A dry run is a testing process where the effects of a
possible failure are intentionally mitigated. For example,
an aerospace company may conduct a "dry run" of a takeoff
using a new aircraft on a runway before the first test
flight.
Smoke testing is a term used in plumbing, woodwind repair,
electronics, computer software development, infectious
disease control, and the entertainment industry. It refers
to the first test made after repairs or first assembly to
provide some assurance that the system under test will not
catastrophically fail. After a smoke test proves that "the
pipes will not leak, the keys seal properly, the circuit
will not burn, or the software will not crash outright,"
the assembly is ready for more stressful testing.

Answer / srivatsan iyengar
Dry run Testing And Smoke testing Both done to ensure that
Product is ready for the upcoming phase.
Dry Run is done by the developer its kind of a white box
testing where developer ensures that when the build is given
for testing it wont get rejected by the QA team due to some
blocker defects.
Smoke test is done to ensure that the received build is
testable ie no blocker defect will be found during test.
Dry Run is done on developer side and smoke is done on
tester side.
in the end of testing a full dry run is been runned by
developer and tester runs a full regression
