A test scenario is almost like a story like example a user enters into the application from login window by entering valid user name and password.After entering he will click on module Payslip and clicks on latest payslip feature to view his latest payslip .Any test scenario will contain a specific goal.

A test case can be derived from a scenario .For the above scenario we can write a test case like :

Test Case # 1:

S.No Steps Expected

1 Open the login window Login window is open

2 Enter valid UN & Pwd Application should be open

3 Click on Payslip Features in payslip should be displayed

4 Click on latest payslip feature It should open latest payslip window

Above is a positive test case and a negative test case can also be prepared.A test case is prepared and executed with a goal to find the hidden defects with different possibilities.

Test Scenario: From Use Case & Functionality Requirement of the Application.

Test Case: From Test Scenario (Use Case & Funtionality Requirement) of App.

Test Scenario represents a series of actions that are associated together. (From initiation to completion)

Test Case represents a signle (low level) action by the user.

Test Scenarios are just a flow of the application.

e.g. 1. Filling up all the fields on the form --> click on Ok button --> Next screen

1. Filling up all the fields on the form --> click on Cancel button --> All the will be erased.

The main difference between test scanarios and test cases is scenarios won't contain actual data to be put while executing where as test cases will have actual data to be put and the expected result.

Everything else will remain the same. Anyone correct me if I am wrong.

Test case:Test Case is a commonly used term for a specific test. This is usually the smallest unit of testing.
