What is smoke testing and when it will be done?

Answer Posted / sethupathy

Smoke Testing: Testing the application to know whether the
application is eligible to test is called smoke testing. It
means there should some piece of code should be working for
the testers to test and proceed further. This testing is
done many times to check does the application meet
acceptance criteria to start testing.

Ex: There might be a case "dll not found error" seen when
you launch the application after installing. What testing
can you do when you cannot launch the application?
