According to FUNDOO who replied and I write:
"Smoke and Sanity testing both perform the same type of
checking which is whether the software should go for major
testing or not. The difference lies, Smoke Testing is
performed at developers end by the developer and in
contrast Sanity Testing is performed by the tester.
And i can gurantee this is 100% correct answer.

Well, Fundoo it seems you are new to QA
experience/business. Don't comment that your answer is 100%
correct answer which is distorted & Confusing to those
persons who are reading this site.
First of all: The Smoke test are done each and every time,
if the version is changed, that has nothing to do with
developers etc. Yes, are you using Automation. If yes, then
the smoke test are done by the Autoamation team(expert)
after the developers have given the software to the QA
team. Well if your company is small then it may be the
developer doing that, then in that case you are a Tester
not a QA. Regarding the Sanity Test, that is performed
first time, when the application is developed. Later you
have Smoke test and lot of regression test before you are a
new version is developed. And the cycle goes on and on. I
hope to the readers that the confussion is cleared after
reading this.
