Answer / pavan

As pointed out by Sindhuja....
Smoke testing is a quick check of the system whether it is
testable or not. This is generally done whenever new build
of applications come up. This also include checking whether
the application is crashing or not, any database related
errors, environment related.

Sanity testing, on the other hand, means testing only the
major functionality

Either of these testing can be done before accepting the
build for complete testing. But smoke testing is more
preferable...

Answer / krishna

Smoke testing is nothing but BVT(Build veriication test).
After the build was completed and the product is ready to
release we can test build was acceptable or not for further
testing.that means all the modules are integrated properly
and major functionalities are working properly or not after
the build.it is done by the developer.

Answer / swarupa nagpurkar

Smoke testing is cursory testing. Basically this concept is
from hardware field. Suppose any new part of particular
hard ware is test to check that part is catch fire or
not.The term was originally coined in the manufacture of
containers and pipes, where smoke was introduced to
determine if there were any leaks .It is Scripted.Main
function of application is tested in this type. It is also
called as build varification test.
