Sanity Testing:
Whenever a build is received this is the first test conducted by testers to check the basic functionalities of all the requirements.
During this test only positive conditions are tested, this test is conducted in less time.

Smoke testing:

When ever build arrives, testing all critical functionalities to ensure that the build is stable and can resist furthur testing is called smoke testing.

Sanity testing:

When a build arrives with minor changes, then testing those critical functionalities which are dependent on the change is called Sanity testing.

Sanity testing is a cursory testing, it is performed whenever a cursory testing is sufficient to prove the application is functioning according to specifications. This level of testing is a subset of regression testing.
Hence its not mandatory to cover all the 100 dialog boxes.

Sanity testing is done to check whether the basic functionality is executed or not.
With 100 text boxes we can start with any one or two text boxes and do positive testing. i.e enter valid inputs in them and check whether they accept it or not.
If any error occurs, it is understood that the module provided by developer is still not ready for testing.
