As for my knowledge a clean and neat 'Test case description' is the most important one in test case, why because in description a tester can found max idea of what we are going to do in the application.

FOr ex: Desc: Verify that proper validation message will be shown for blank user id.

BY reading this description a tester can easily under stod he has to check the user id for validation

Nothing but the clear description of the action which is going to be carried out from the requirement and the expected result out of it . A test case id which makes the test case unique from other test cases.

Objective of a test case : To match user requirement.

There are many things important in a test case-

Test case id : unique to identify a test case. Helps tester to add the test case id to the bug he /she posts for fixing which internally helps the developer to reproduce the scenario.

Test case description : Simple easy to understand statements that helps any individual to perform the steps.

Mapping to SRS: to help to know what requirement is tested.

Test case Expected result : What is required out of the testcase (check implementation works fine) This also should be in an easy to understandable statements.

Test case priority: Helps to identify whether this test case has to be tested or not when testing time is reduced.

Please correct me...

Test condition; simple!

Test condition can be a feature, piece of functionality, or anything that you intend to verify. In simple terms the goal of a test case.
Let's suppose you wrote a test case for yahoo mail authentication. In this case, test condition is the login functionality.
