Question:  The top management has feeling that when there are any changes in the technology being used, development schedules etc, it was a waste of time to update the Test Plan. Instead, they were emphasizing that you should put your time into testing than working on the test plan. Your Project Manager asked for your opinion. You have argued that Test Plan is very important and you need to update your test plan from time to time. It’s not a waste of time and testing activities would be more effective when you have your plan clear. Use some metrics. How you would support your argument to have the test plan consistently updated all the time.

Planning for any peace of work is very important, if we have a good plan than we can complete the work in right time with quality, even most of the projects and works getting late due to lack of plan.

 Updating a plan is not a waste of time, i think it's just take less than one day as for as my knowledge. I can tell to my PM below factors.

-> If we wanted to share our plan with client then how can we maintain??
-> If our plan was assigned for review by quality peopel then how can we maintain?
-> If our company goes to CMMI certifications and they wanted to see the plans then
     how can we maitain?
-> Apart from all , how can we keep track of the changes given client and all
