Testcases basically consists of 3columns->Testcase Number,Testcase Description,Pass/Fail.Each and every scenario has to be considered in the tescase description and should be updated in the process of software development.Testcases can be Functional testcases,Boundary testcases,Invalid Testcases.

Testplan: Sequence in which testing should be done based on the Requirement Documentation. This Ordering is done based on the PRIORITY of how the component to be tested effects the software devlopment.

IEEE Standard for Software Test Documentation(ANSI/IEEE Standard 829-1983)This is a summary of the ANSI/IEEE Standard 829-1983. It describes a test plan as:?A document describing the scope, approach, resources, and schedule of intended testing activities. It identifies test items, the features to be tested, the testing tasks, who will do each task, and any risks requiring contingency planning.?This standard specifies the following test plan outline:Test Plan Identifier: ? A unique identifierIntroduction? Summary of the items and features to be tested? Need for and history of each item (optional)? References to related documents such as project authorization, project plan, QA plan, configuration management plan, relevant policies, relevant standards? References to lower level test plansTest Items? Test items and their version? Characteristics of their transmittal media? References to related documents such as requirements specification, design specification, users guide, operations guide, installation guide? References to bug reports related to test items? Items which are specifically not going to be tested (optional)Features to be Tested? All software features and combinations of features to be tested? References to test-design specifications associated with each feature and combination of featuresFeatures Not to Be Tested? All features and significant combinations of features which will not be tested? The reasons these features won?t be testedApproach? Overall approach to testing? For each major group of features of combinations of featres, specify the approach? Specify major activities, techniques, and tools which are to be used to test the groups? Specify a minimum degree of comprehensiveness required? Identify which techniques will be used to judge comprehensiveness? Specify any additional completion criteria? Specify techniques which are to be used to trace requirements? Identify significant constraints on testing, such as test-item availability, testing-resource availability, and deadlineItem Pass/Fail Criteria? Specify the criteria to be used to determine whether each test item has passed or failed testingSuspension Criteria and Resumption Requirements? Specify criteria to be used to suspend the testing activity? Specify testing activities which must be redone when testing is resumedTest Deliverables? Identify the deliverable documents: test plan, test design specifications, test case specifications, test procedure specifications, test item transmittal reports, test logs, test incident reports, test summary reports? Identify test input and output data? Identify test tools (optional)Testing Tasks? Identify tasks necessary to prepare for and perform testing? Identify all task interdependencies? Identify any special skills required? Environmental Needs? Specify necessary and desired properties of the test environment: physical characteristics of the facilities including hardware, communications and system software, the mode of usage (i.e., stand-alone), and any other software or supplies needed? Specify the level of security required? Identify special test tools needed? Identify any other testing needs? Identify the source for all needs which are not currently availableResponsibilities? Identify groups responsible for managing, designing, preparing, executing, witnessing, checking and resolving? Identify groups responsible for providing the test items identified in the Test Items section? Identify groups responsible for providing the environmental needs identified in the Environmental Needs sectionStaffing and Training Needs? Specify staffing needs by skill level? Identify training options for providing necessary skillsSchedule? Specify test milestones? Specify all item transmittal events? Estimate time required to do each testing task ? Schedule all testing tasks and test milestones? For each testing resource, specify its periods of useRisks and Contingencies? Identify the high-risk assumptions of the test plan?

Generally Testplan and Test case formats has different contents with respect to their quality standards.

We have contents like

Test Plan Contents:

1. Objective 2. Scope 3. Referential materials (BDD,UCD,WF) 4. Test items 5.Features to be tested 6. Features not to be tested  7. Test approach (Types of testing to be done on Application in Sequence) 8. Pass/Fail Criteria 9.Test Deliverables (Defect profiles, Test Summary Reports, Test Execution Reports) 10. Testing tasks 11. Responsibilities & Roles 12. Test Schedule 13. ENvironmental Requirements 14.Risks & Contigencies 15. Change management process

Test Case Contents:

1. Test case id 2. Category(Fun or UI) 3. Feature Description 4. Prerequisite 5.Test description 6. Input data 7. Expected Result 8. Actual Result 9. No. of test case combinations 10. Actual Result 11. P/F status 12. Defect ID 13. Build No.

Test Plan : Plan prepared with a test scope, test objective,test approach and test schedule for all the builds in the project or for a specific build/version.It mainly consists of how to test?,when to test?,where to test?and who to test?.IEEE 829-1983 standard test plan consists :

Test Plan ID,Introduction,Test Items,Features to be tested,Features not to be tested,Test Environment,Testing Tasks,Features pass/fail conditions.Testing suspension situation,staff training needs,test approach,schedules and signature.

Test case contents :

Guide for Test case & Test Suit:

A test case is usually a single step, and its expected result, along with various additional piecesof information. It can occasionally be a series of steps but with one expected result or expected outcome.

The optional fields are a test case ID,Description,test step / order of execution number, related requirement(s), depth, test category, author, and check boxes for whether the test is automatable and has been automated.
Larger test cases may also contain prerequisite states or steps. A test case should also contain a place for the actual result. These steps can be stored in a word processor document, spreadsheet, database or other common repository.

A Test Suit: The most common term for a collection of test cases is a test suite.

The test suite often also contains more detailed instructions / goals for each collection of test cases. It definitely contains a section where the tester identifies the system configuration used during testing. A group of test cases may also contain prerequisite states or steps, and descriptions of the following tests.

Collections of test cases are sometimes incorrectly termed a test plan. They may also be called a test script, or even a test scenario.

A test plan is the approach that will be used to test the system, not the individual tests.

Most companies that use automated testing will call the code that is used their test scripts.

A Test Plan Contains:

Test Scope, Objective, Assumption, Risk Analysis, Tools identification, Roles and Responsibilites, Testing methods.

A Test plan is a road map that will be followed while testing ,it provides the background information of system being tested,test objectives,test strategy,risk,Schedule,Test Requirement.

A test Plan would contain
Test plan Identifier
Introdution of the planning activity
Test Requirment(S/W,H/W)
Schedule
Risk Factors
Entry & Exit Criteria
Enviromental needs
Deliverables:- test cases, Test logs, test harneses, test beds, Test suites etc
Roles & Responsibilities
Approch of the team towards testing
Features to be tested/ Not to be tested
Pass/fail Criteria
Suspension/Resumption criteria
Authority


Test Case describes tests that needs to be run on the program to verify that the program run as expected.
A test Case would contain

Test Case ID
Prerequistes
Steps to be Executed
