Main Description
Once Smoke testing is complete and there are no significant bugs/errors reported, QA Lead should send an email to Dev and PM about the outcome/test result(s). This email should be considered as an official communication/sign-off from QA. At this point code/build can be deployed to a formal QA env if Smoke Testing is done in a Pre-QA env and QA can begin formal test cycle(s) on the project.
