Smoke testing: It is a single test case, which cover all the
functionalities in a single test case.
It verifies the major functionalities at high level in order
to determine if further testing is possible or not?
The Smoke test scenario should emphasize breath more than
the depth.
It is conducted before the performance testing.
Sanity testing: It is to check the application, where the
application is stable or not?
This is done by before the putting major testing effort.

Answer / naveen
Smoke Test: When a build is received, a smoke test is run
to ascertain if the build is stable and it can be
considered for further testing.
Smoke testing can be done for testing the stability of any
interim build.
Smoke testing can be executed for platform qualification
tests.
Sanity testing:
Once a new build is obtained with minor revisions, instead
of doing a through regression, a sanity is performed so as
to ascertain the build has indeed rectified the issues and
no further issue has been introduced by the fixes. Its
generally a subset of regression testing and a group of
test cases are executed that are related with the changes
made to the app.
