Basically, smoke testing is a rapid regression test of the major functionality and shows that the product is ready for further testing. With smoke testing method, most of the defects are identified at initial stages of the software development and helps in correction of these identified defects.<br><br>https://www.testingxperts.com/blog/smoke-testing

F1 TYPES OF SMOKE TESTS Smoke testing has got its name from hardware repair systems wherein a smoke test is performed on pipelines to know whether they are working or not. Similarly, this smoke test is a quick test performed as a part of the software testing, to see if the application “catches on fire” when a new build is deployed and tested for the first time. MANUAL METHOD: The smoke tests are run manually in this method of smoke testing wherein for each newly added feature, the scripts have to be updated or based on the need new scripts will have to be created. This is the most commonly used method for smoke testing. AUTOMATION METHOD: Automation testing is also used wherein a set of automated test cases are used to run the smoke tests. With the help of automation tests, developers can check build immediately, whenever there is a new bug noted in the build. HYBRID METHOD: This is a combination of both manual and automated testing methods which improves the overall smoke testing performance. There are different types of software testing which includes unit testing, integration testing, system testing, sanity testing, smoke testing, interface testing and many more. Among these testing methods, smoke testing plays an important role as it is performed on each new build to check if the build is broken or can be moved to further testing.
