Explanation

"Smoke"

Explanation:

Smoke testing was originally derived from hardware testing, where a device was powered on for the first time, and if it started smoking or failed immediately, it was considered defective.

In software development, smoke testing refers to a preliminary test performed after a build to check if the critical functionalities are working before moving to deeper testing. It ensures that:

  • The application build is stable enough for further testing.
  • Major functionalities are working as expected.

Thus, the correct answer is:
"Smoke"
