Answer / narayana
smoke testing is test whether the build is installed
properly or not and is ready for further major testing.
Sanity testing is carried after smoke testing to check
whether the major functionality is working properly or not
to proceed further testing.
for ex: when a build is passed the smoke test, the sainty
test is conducted on it by just navigating to the hyper
links,or major functional whether the links are opening
properly or not.Here there is will be using more critical
test cases for testing the Sanity testing.

Smoke testing :
We can otherwise call it Horizontal/Breadth Testing.
Here we check all the major functionalities of the AUT.
Sanity Testing:
It is known as Vertical/Depth testing.
Here we check the sub-functionalities of the major
