The test cases for a search engine would be very vast. It totally depends upon the scope of testing. Some of the test cases are as mentioned below:

1) Check for simple strings like 'cricket 2007' or ' Indian history'.
2) Test the functionality of multiple page display by clicking on page number.
3) Verify whether a combination string works like 'cricket 2007_sachin tendulkar'
4) Perform test for opening the links in new windows.

Hi

It's not quite easy to say the test cases for a large site like google in short time, i think it will take easily more than one month. Anyhow here i tried to include some of the test cases.


1. Verify that google default search page is invoked or not
    http://www.google.co.in/

2. Enter a valid word ( which should have some sites) into google search word and submit the page
                              Ex: google

3. Verify the results are really related to give word or not

4. Observe the multi languages links are shown or not

   Google.co.in offered in: Hindi Bengali Telugu Marathi Tamil Gujarati Kannada Malayalam Punjabi in default page

5. Below options should be shown

 Advanced Search
  Preferences
  Language Tools

6. Verify the results for a semi correct word  Ex: google is a ri8 word, goglle is semi correct word and it should nt have results, in this situation below message should auto populate automatically.

  Ex: Did you mean: google  

7. By clicking on above link it should again refresh the search criteria

8. If search result crosses more than 10 sites then below link should show
