Test scripts is a set of instructions that form a test program to test whether the system performs as expected.We use the term test script in reference to the test instruction utilized along with automated test tools.
The test script for manual testing is referred as test cases.
A test case is usually a single step, or occasionally a sequence of steps, to test the correct behaviour/functionalities, features of an application. An expected result or expected outcome is usually given.
