Context:

A fictional file-submission release supports desktop Chrome on Windows, desktop Edge on Windows, and Safari on a physical iPhone. Those three configurations must each complete a 15-minute smoke package before release. Two optional deep packages are available: a 20-minute large-file and camera-upload package on the iPhone, and a 20-minute clipboard and retry package on desktop Chrome. The changed code affects both upload paths and clipboard handling. Recent eligible sessions were 60% Chrome, 25% iPhone Safari and 15% Edge; these are case inputs, not market shares. One tester has 90 minutes, all three environments are available, and package estimates include setup and reset. Packages are indivisible and cannot run in parallel. Each smoke checks sign-in, a small-file submission, confirmation and reopening the submitted record. A viewport-only desktop simulation is available but is not an approved substitute for the physical iPhone in this release.

I would spend 45 minutes on the three required smoke packages, 20 on the iPhone upload package and 20 on the Chrome clipboard and retry package. That commits 85 minutes and leaves five for recording the result or a small investigation...
