Test case id will be unique. Any numbering format can be followed.

Requirement ID will be the number for which requirement u r writting the test case this is usefull for preparing tracebility matrix.

Description will contain the steps to execute the test case.

Expected will contain what should be result after executing the steps.

Actual responce is what we got after the test case execution.

Result will pass or fail - this will be helpful in generating test execution report.

A template means the skeleton just the format. It contains the fields representing the testcase. Most of the companies use the excel sheets to write test cases they contain the following basic fields:

Test Id: (Contains the number/particular field)

Steps: (How to test)

Expected Results: (what should be the result after test)

Severity: (Indicating the severity if the test case fails)

Comments: (Can be anything related to the test case EX: This feature is still coding or This test case fails a known issue)
