Answer / shiva
Both are tested by testers.
When build is at the initial phase of STLC, say build No 1, then smoke testing is conducted to ensure build is suitable for further testing, where major functionality, critical areas, show stopper TC's are tested.
When build is at the middle or final phase of STLC, say build No 20-100+, then sanity testing is conducted to ensure reported defects in the previous cycle is fixed and tester can go run for regression kind of testing.

Answer / rohit lamsonge
smoke: Testing the Basic and critical feature immediately when we get build before doing r in-depth testing. If basic feature are not working there is no reason to do in-depth testing.
Sanity: sanity is nothing but the part of smoke testing. but one step ahead. ex: For GMAIL, if testing basic functionality of compose, send mail, inbox is smoke then testing the send mail con be forwarded , replay is sanity (one step ahead).

Answer / varsha saxena
Sanity and Smke are done by Testers only.
Sanity is a small set of test cases executed to check if
the built is ready to test or not.
Smoke is a small set of regression test set, to check if
built is ready to release. Once done, it is reday to go to
UAT or production

Sanity means one will conduct overall testing on the
