  3. Smoke Testing • Smoke testing refers to physical tests made to closed systems of pipes to test for leaks. By metaphorical extension, the term is also used for the first test made after assembly or repairs to a system, 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 system is ready for more stressful testing.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smoke_testing

  4. Smoke Testing means... • Smoke testing is preliminary testing to reveal simple failures severe enough to reject a prospective software release • As the book “Lessons Learned in Software Testing“ puts it, “smoke tests broadly cover product features in a limited time ... if key features don't work or if key bugs haven't yet been fixed, your team won't waste further time installing or testing”

  5. Why Smoke Test? • Microsoft claims that after code reviews, “smoke testing is the most cost effective method for identifying and fixing defects in software“ • Lets your team know if your systems core functionality is working • Becomes a base for your regression testing
