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,
Sridevi

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

Can u explain about Test scenario breifly?
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.
Kishore...
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 .

Nikhil Rattan
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.

hi one and all
this is vennela
Hi everyone.
this is chandu.
can u explain use case and test case with examples pleaseee
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

Re: test case and test senerio
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.
Hi, can anyone tell me what is siebel testing? if it is automated type testing then which tool is used for this? thanx in advance. Regards sunny singh
A test case is a document that describes an input, action, or event
and an expected response, to determine if a feature of an application
is working correctly.
• A test case should contain particulars such as test case identifier,
test case name, objective, test conditions/setup, input data
requirements, steps, and expected results.
Hi srkishoredrdo,
I have collected few information on your query,some of your queries are already discussed in geekinterview anyway have a glance.
1) Thread testing
this link directs you to geekinterview specific discussion about thread testing http://www.geekinterview.com/question_details/32901
2) bucket testing
similarly this topic is discussed already,below link will provide you inforamtion http://www.geekinterview.com/question_details/28841
3) implementation testing
Ref: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Installation_testingImplementation testing or sometimes called installation testing is typically completed by the software testing engineer in conjunction with the configuration manager. Implementation testing is usually defined as testing which takes place using the compile version of code into the testing environment or pre-production environment which may or may not make it into production.
This generally takes place outside of the development environment to limit code corruption from other future releases which may reside on the development environment. While the ideal installation might simply appear to be to run an install program sometimes called package software. This package software typically uses a setup program which acts as a multi configuration wrapper, which may allow the software to be installed on a variety of machine and/or operating environments. Every possible configuration should require extensive testing before it can be used with confidence.
In distributed systems, particularly where software is to be released into an already live target environment (such as an operational web site) installation (or software deployment as it is sometimes called) can involve database schema changes as well as the installation of new software. Deployment plans in such circumstances may include back-out procedures whose use is intended to roll the target environment back in the event that the deployment is unsuccessful.
Ideally, the deployment plan itself should be tested in an environment that is a replica of the live environment. A factor that can increase the organizational requirements of such an exercise is the need to synchronize the data in the test deployment environment with that in the live environment with minimum disruption to live operation. This type of implementation may include testing of the processes which take place during the installation or upgrade of a multi tear application.
This type of testing is commonly compared to a dress rehearsal or may even be called a “dry run”. Implementation testing is testing of a full, partial or upgrades install/uninstall processes.
hope it helped you.

Hi,
Test cases are written for test scenario. First the tester is given with test scenario which we can also call as business scenario and test cases are written for that scenario...
Thanks
Manoj
Test case is a condition which confirm that actual result is same as the expected result.
Test scenario is use case condition , how user can use the system.

Test case is set of design steps for one test scenerio.
Test scenerio is like a business process,splitting the several processes into simple steps are called test cases.
Dear Friends,
In Simpler terms,a test scenario can be further divided into n number of test cases.But a test case cannot be further divided.
Test scenario describes the end requirement.
Hi everybody,
I'm new to testing and this forum as well. Pl guide me how to write test cases on mercury flight reservation system.
hi
what is testcases?

The test case is used to test the software whether it is working properly or not. there are two types test cases 1 is white box testing 2 black box testing
A test case is a set of logically related test steps (actions performed on the s/w) that are applied on the s/w in the required order for the purpose of validating and verifying its correctness according to the requirements of the end user.

Test cases is nothing but a condition, this will be used for testing.It will be better if i explain it through an eg. If someone asks u to test an application , say some site and users below 18 years are not allowed.Then we an create test cases as follows:
age<18;
age=18 ;(boundary level test casesare important, since it may fail many times)
age>18;
All these are test cases to check whether our application is working according to need or not. Test cases are ground on which we perform testing.

Hi frndz,
What are the difference between test cases,test scenario,and test suite?briefly explain the above cases with an example?
Test Case is a document which describes the input, Action , expected Results to determine that software Application is working correctly. we can also define Test Case is a set of input parameters for which testing is to be carried out.
Test scenario is combination of test. In a scenario we execute different test.We see what a user can do for a particular action.
test scenarios examples:
scenario: you have login-inbox-logout
Test Suit is a Document which keeps the information of all Test Cases whcih have exceuted in the application. The information are as follows:
1. what are the Test Cases
2. In what order they have applied
3. How many test cases are failed and passed.
Last edited by jainbrijesh; 05-30-2007 at 05:03 AM.
What is meant by Test Suit? can anybody explain about test suit with an example?
A test suit is a set of logically related and closely similar test cases which can all be applied to the s/w without having to repeate some of the actions in it.
Lack of WILL POWER has caused more failure than
lack of INTELLIGENCE or ABILITY.

Re: what is testcase
Test case is nothing but a test condition ,which is to be implemented on an application/module based on the requirement.
Test Case
A test case is a software testing document,which consists of event, action, input, output, expected result, and actual result. Clinically defined (IEEE 829-1998) a test case is an input and an expected result. This can be as pragmatic as 'for condition x your derived result is y', whereas other test cases described in more detail the input scenario and what results might be expected. It can occasionally be a series of steps (but often steps are contained in a separate test procedure that can be exercised against multiple test cases, as a matter of economy) but with one expected result or expected outcome. The optional fields are a test case ID, test step or order of execution number, related requirement(s), depth, test category, author, and check boxes for whether the test is automatable and has been automated. Larger test cases may also contain prerequisite states or steps, and descriptions. A test case should also contain a place for the actual result. These steps can be stored in a word processor document, spreadsheet, database, or other common repository. In a database system, you may also be able to see past test results and who generated the results and the system configuration used to generate those results. These past results would usually be stored in a separate table.
Test scenario
Collections of test cases are sometimes incorrectly termed a test plan. They might correctly be called a test specification. If sequence is specified, it can be called a test script, scenario, or procedure.
Test suite
The most common term for a collection of test cases is a test suite. The test suite often also contains more detailed instructions or goals for each collection of test cases. It definitely contains a section where the tester identifies the system configuration used during testing. A group of test cases may also contain prerequisite states or steps, and descriptions of the following tests.
Correct me if i'm wrong
Hello All,
what are necessary things to consider while doing White boxtesting
Test Case is detailed documentation which we have to test
scenario:in that situation
Suite:collection of test cases with intended goal
