Re: Is Test Case & Test Script same OR different

Test scenarios are the test suites in which the application works or might be put into, test case is the subset of test suite in which you give values or check the functionality in the new scenario or suite. and test script is the automated script to run that test case.

Re: Is Test Case & Test Script same OR different

Test Scenarios – Is a pre condition or a base state in which the application is put before the execution of a test case.

Test Suit – A collection of logically related test cases.

Test Case – A single test of the suit that has at least one input value that is unique among the other test cases of the suit.

Test script is a test automation program code in TSL language (for WinRunner) or VBScript language (for QTP).

Re: Is Test Case & Test Script same OR different

Test cases are written for a specific functionality (For example to Test Login for a user)
Test cases come under test scenarios where many test cases are put together to test a functionality( To test Login and home page functionalities where u need to write a group of testcases for both Login & home page functionalites)
Test scripts are the automation part of test cases

Re: Is Test Case & Test Script same OR different

There is no agreed upon definition what a scenario is, but still
We define scenarios informally to be any form of description or capture of user-system interaction sequences.
What is a test case?
A set of test inputs, execution conditions and expected results
Reflects what tests need to be performed
Identifies the data needed for testing
Specifies pre-conditions, post conditions and acceptance/pass criteria
Provides a means to verify system use cases and other requirements
Helps determine test coverage
Test Script
This is generated by the tools and we cannot write them.

Test case and test script are same thing, just difference exists is that test case manual check up and test script is automated check up of the application.

Test scenario is the way a user can use the application, generally combination of different test cases.

Re: Is Test Case & Test Script same OR different

In the software testing
Test Scenario: It is a one function of the application.

Test case: we want to make sure the function in the different ways. So Test cases are explaining those different ways.
Normally test cases have two types 1. Positive Test case
2. Negative Test case.

Test script: Automated test cases called as test script.

If test case is generated using automated tools, it is called as Test Script.
