smoke testing is done for finding the build stability.It

Answer / nitin verma
Whenever a new build comes for testing, it requires a
initial level testing to check weather the build is stable
to test further or not, or if there is any showstopper
issues. If the build is stable then it moves to further
regression testing but if the build is not stable and some
showstopper issues are found in it then the tester can
reject the build.
Plz correct me if i am wrong...
