what are the different between test case and test seneario
A test case is the procedure followed to execute a test, it consists of the details about the input and expected result.
Test scenarios are based on a hypothetical story to help a person to think through a complex program or a system.
Prasad,
Good one!!!
Hi
Prasad
Can u explain about Test scenario breifly?
thanks & regards

Hi Bharathy,
As for us Test Scenario is concerned ,we can discuss many scenarios in day today life like
1. Automated teller machine (ATM- Cash machine) ,
2. Swipping machine for Credit or Debit cards on purchase made.
3. Winding machine ( for coffe maker)
4. weighing machine in shops
Each of the above tells scenario on testing certain parameters.For instance if you take ATM Scenario.You can perform various transactions such as
a) you can find Balance on your account
b) You can draw cash as you wish
c) you can apply for cheque books
d) You can generate Mini or Detailed Account statement etc
For each of this parameters you can write Test cases.Hope you got better idea between test cases and test Scenario.Please revert back if you need any informations.
Thanks,

Hi Sridevi,
Thanks for such a great explanation.
I would like to add something to this discussion.
Test cases are the actions to test the functionalities of the application.
However, test scenerios are based on the URS. Normally there are two types of flows in the URS- Basic and alternate.
In basic flows it explains how the application will work as per user's requirement and alternate flows describes the other possiblities.
So, we used to consider scenerios based on these two types of flows. One is normal flow which is positive and the second one is alternate which is negative.
For example , in the user name field, if URS specifies, it should accept alphbates in the range 8-10. then we will check the same in basic flow and other than this specifiec condition will be checked in the alternate flow.
Please correct me if I am wrong.
This is great web site to share and gain knowledge.
Thanks

Hi,
Testcase = A testcase is a one which checks a functionality of one particular object at a time..A scenario can check functionality of multiple objects..and we can tell this as one business process..we can define a series of test-case executed as one scenario
Test Scenario = Think of a scenario as a workflow. It tests a series of test cases .
hi all
In simpler way
Test case is an executable condition on a build(application).
Test Scenario is a workflow with no of test cases.

Hi Kishore,
May be this can more specific. IF u agree with this line
Think of a scenario as a workflow. It tests a series of test cases .

hi Nikhil
i agree with u.but every body has it's own definition,some people may say like this some in another way.
Test scenario describs a specfic workflow about functionality of an application with some no of test cases from starting to ending.
eg: withdraw in bank ATM.
Hi friends
i want to take the example of the bus riding for expalining tht
test scenario:
some real time situations or work flow or real existence of work tht how we going to do tht thing. e.g:- we decided to go some whr by bus.so as we planed tht we wil take the bus from tht stop & reach tht palace.
test case:
" documented steps written 2 execute particular functionality of the component of software tht might contail expected results, inputs to ensure tht the desired functionality works fine."
e.g:-
1. First we take the riksaw from home.
2.reach bus station by riksaw.
3.take seat in bus.
4.reach there by bus.
5.left the bus after reaching to that place. & like that "these might b the some test cases tht u can think based on the above scenario"
hope tht u got the concept
if u find me wrong somwhere please notify me
i wil b thank ful to u
regards

hai friends,
I need clarifications for some doubts in testing terminology.
1.What is thread testing.
2.What is bucket testing and which automated tool is used to do this test.
3. ERP testin automation testing.
4.What is Data Warehousing testing?
5.What is Implementation testing?
6.What is Shake out testing?
please let me have the clarifications in detail
Test case : Verifying the functionality
Test scenario : Set of Test cases.
Meaning of V Model in Project based companies.

hi one and all
this is vennela
well test senario is the situation or a special case senario based testing in which a tester tries to create that situation and depening upon the need of testing that situation /senario various differnt kind of test cases are required.
A test case is always a subset of a test senario ..
I hope it helps ..

Test Scenario is a big picture. There can be several test cases that can be written to test one test scenario.
e.g. Test Scenario - Test the checking account functionality for a bank application
Test cases for the same could be - Test checking form, test for required fields on the form, test for accuracy of the deposit/withdraw function, test for error conditions such as trying to withdraw more than available balance etc.,
Hope this helps

Scenierio is an approach on which basis different sets of test cases can be generated.Scenierio is based on a particular approach describing a logic.
