    Dear Friend, I hope you have Completly understand the Application Business Process you will be testing. Secondly you have better Understanding on the  Infrastructure Architecture you will be Testing and the application would be deployed. Thirdly you should have the informathion on WorkLoad that the test needs (Business process  to test, Transactions to Achieve, TPS to achieve, Goal Oriented or Transaction Oriented ). These things are Important before you start the Planning/Statergy document as you will have to document all these in the statergy document.

    The Plan and Statergy doc includes
    Introduction.
    Short Description of the application.
    What is the objective of the testing.
    Distribution List.
    Inscope/Outscope of the test.
    Test Mix/Scenraios.
    Business Process Identified (Document with Click  Stream, VUgen will generate BP document).
    Attach Document of the Infrastructure configuration of your test environment (You can get it from your IT team).
    Test tentative Schedule.
    Description of the Tests you would perform, Like Average Load, Peak Load, Scalability, Soak etc.

    If you are still in req Gathering you can identify the Business process and give it to your stake holder that we have identified these process for testing.

    Next you can get the Work Load, what is the expected User load they are expecting Peak and Non Peak, then prepare a work load metrix.
