Smoke Test

Smoke Test

Definition

A smoke test is a minimal set of automated tests that verify the most critical functionality of an application after deployment. Named after the electrical engineering practice of powering on a circuit to see if it smokes, smoke tests confirm that a deployment is fundamentally healthy before more extensive validation.

They are the first gate in post-deployment verification.
