Hi,

   Test Plan is  document which defines  Scope,Stratergy,Entry and Exit criteria,Risks, Roles and Responsibilities, Test Environment,Schedules,Trainning,Assumptions  of the application. 

 Whereas test design includes testcase preparation and execution, and i think preparation of test report also.

     Test plan: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.

Test design:The design has to meet some preliminary requirements resulting from the approximative character of the distributions of our test statistics.
