    Hi

    I feel we need to follow a process.

    Divide your testcases based on priority-
    -High
    -Medium
    -Low

    Start with the high priority testcases and then go on with subsequent ones (meduim,low)

    As you said you have 1000 testcases does that mean 1 person needs to execute all in seven days? or you have a team ?
    As per my knowledge on a given day 1 person can execute 50 standard testcases (42 to be exact). Hence one week would make 350 testcases by 1 tester. So to complete these testcases keeping in mind high quality you need to have a 3 - 4 member team who can complete the assigned testcases in 1 weeks time.

    Keep in mind quality rather than quantity

    It depends on type of testing,manual or automated.
    For manual testing,the ans given by Sabariis and Srenii is excelent.
    For automated testing we need the script to run all the test cases which very hard to devlope script withen specify time period but it may possible or we may take help of some automation test tool.

    Hi, To decide how many test cases you are going to run, first you should find it out the dependancies of test cases. On the basis of dependancies reate those test cases against the defect severity and Impact value associated with the test cases. it'll give you the exact no of test cases which need to run within the given period of time.
    For the same I suggest get in place the matrix which will give you the test cases which are really effective and then define the dependancies have a regression framework in place so that your work will get easiar and sooner.
    If you wish I can send you a regression framework but first try at your end.

    In manual Testing we will divide the testcases depending upon its priority, i.e,High, Medium,Low., and Out of which High, followed by Medium is executed first, even if there are some low priority testcase, that depends upon some high/medium priority testcases. Low priority issues are rejected till all high/medium testcases are executed.

    If all fall under High/Medium, then those testcases that can test the basic functionality(those that cover the working of the application) are only executed.

    the answer is,first you choose the high priority test cases i.e which test case is having high priority only those test cases you execute,you can execute manually or by using automation.I hope my reply is correct.

    It might help to first run the test cases relating to the basic functionality of the application and all its critical features so as to identify show stopper bugs.

    Tests can be rated based on the probability of finding defects, and the order of execution can be highest probable first.

    Lack of WILL POWER has caused more failure than
    lack of INTELLIGENCE or ABILITY.
