Requirement Specifications is the key element.

to write the testcases we need SRS/FRS as well as Usecase document.

If we don't have any specification we will go for ADHOC Testing.

1.In this case we have to apply explore type testing.In this case only application is available. We can prepare the testcase by the help of help file which is available in the application.And also take help from domain expert person if available.And also take help from person who is already working for this project.

Peer Review is the review the documents with in team member.

Test case is the fundamental part of test plan.
If u have application without requirements then go for Exploratory testing (Learn the product while testing).
Peer review is nothing but just discussion about the applicayion it is varification technique.

hi,
A test case is a document that describes an input, action, or event and an expected response, to determine if a feature of an application is working correctly.

without requirements like SRS/BRS document we can test by monkey or adoh testing..
 
 peerreview:-if two persons are developing similar type of documents after completing those documents the review done by opposite one, this is also known as peer review

1. SRS is the one key element of Test cae & Test Plan. Other key elements are FRS, Design Level Documents, CR .
2. This can done by adhoc testing. no prior documemt is needed for testing. but may or may not prepare document after testing. knowing the application and test is the Process.
3. Trainer giving training to stuents is the Practical example for the Peer Review. once happened things are dicussed with the expert as Moderator, documentd and other records should be maintain for evidence.

1) The one key element that impacts both a test case and test plan is requirements.

2) I would perform exploratory testing because requirements are not necessary in this type of testing.  Don't confuse exploratory testing with ad-hoc testing.  Exploratory testing is performed at the beginning of the testing phase of a software development life cycle whereas ad-hoc testing is typically performed toward the end of the testing phase after more formal and structured testing has been completed. 

Exploratory testing wants no preconceived ideas about the product.  In this approach, testing is conducted and test cases are authored simultaneously.

Ad-hoc testing leverages a tester's knowledge and experience to test beyond the formal test cases in an effort to discover defects that a more structured process would not. Though ad-hoc testing doesn't directly use requirements, firm knowledge of requirements helps guide its activities.

3) A peer review is a meeting where a person's work is openly scrutinized by qualified members in the profession.  Its intent is to gain feedback in order to improve the work.  An example of a peer review is when a Test Lead facilitates a meeting where expert members from cross-functional groups discuss and offer input to improve his Test Plan.
