test case: to test the functionality of a particular
object. eg : for login
data: user name and password
test scenario : to test the functionality of a group of
objects to get the result. eg: for login
1.login successful
2.login failed
so these two test cases together contribute a scenario for
login.
Hi!
Difference between Test Case & Test Scenario
Test Case : Is a document which describes the input,
Action/Event and expected response to determine whether the
particular functionality of the application is working fine.
It is a commonly used term for a specific test. This is
usually the smallest unit of testing. A Test Case will
consist of information such as requirements testing, test
steps, verification steps, prerequisites, outputs, test
environment, etc. A set of inputs, execution preconditions,
and expected outcomes developed for a particular objective,
such as to exercise a particular program path or to verify
compliance with a specific requirement.
Test Scenario : A set of test cases that ensure that the
business process flows are tested from end to end. They may
be independent tests or a series of tests that follow each
other, each dependent on the output of the previous one.
Definition of a set of test cases or test scripts and the
sequence in which they are to be executed.
test case is a document which contain
test case name
prepared by
reviewed by
approved by
data of created
date of approval
date of reviewed
test design steps, test data, expected pass/fail, comments
identifying testable item is a test scenario
Test Case: A specification that describes the goals of a
test, the results that the test might produce, the
circumstances in which it will be run, and how it should be
implemented.
Test Scenario: Definition of a set of test cases or test
scripts and the sequence in which they are to be executed.
test scenario is process which insist the tester to think
beyond limits , think about the complex area of the
application . There are lot of types of test scenario like
usecase senario . Let us take one example for login mail
account , check amil , give reply to some mails and
logoff , we have to write scenario on this then we will
write like this way user A went to office ,He login to his
his mail account , then he checks mail and gives reply to
some mails then user A logoff . It is little bit story
type .
The tase cases consists of steps / action to be performed ,
expected result and actual result , severity and priority .
In general Test Scenario is one of the condition derived
from Client requirements where as Test case will gives the
detail of Test scenario completely.

pls tell me who is in s/w testing field(either in company
or as faculty) give the ans of my que. tel me why r u in
testing ? reply me as soon as possible
First Name & Last Name fields are there in the application
form,
In Application First name & last name fields accepts the
numerical value 453455 & special characters $%#$% .
My question is that --> I think No need to write test cases
for Numerical value & special char. for First & Last name
fields
BECAUSE No one will enter such a input data at client side
b'coz it's not practical.
Let's me know the answer.
