+This test suite is dedicated to tests which can quickly verify that any openmct installation is
+operable and that any type of testing can proceed.
+
+Ideally, smoke tests should make zero assumptions about how and where they are run. This makes them
+more resilient to change and therefor a better indicator of failure. Smoke tests will also run quickly
+as they cover a very "thin surface" of functionality.
+
+When deciding between authoring new smoke tests or functional tests, ask yourself "would I feel
+comfortable running this test during a live mission?" Avoid creating or deleting Domain Objects.
+Make no assumptions about the order that elements appear in the DOM.
