In software engineering, a test suite (more formally known
as a validation suite) is a collection of test cases that
are intended to be used as input to a software program to
show that it has some specified set of behaviors (i.e., the
behaviors listed in its specification).
A test suite often also contains detailed instructions or
goals for each collection of test cases and information on
the system configuration to be used during testing. A group
of test cases may also contain prerequisite states or
steps, and descriptions of the following tests.
Collections of test cases are sometimes incorrectly termed
a test plan. They may also be called a test script, or even
a test scenario.
An executable test suite is a test suite that is ready to
be executed. This usually means that there exists a test
harness that is integrated with the suite and such that the
test suite and the test harness together can work on a
sufficiently detailed level to correctly communicate with
the system under test (SUT).
A test suite for a primality testing subroutine might
consist of a list of numbers and their primality (prime or
composite), along with a testing subroutine. The testing
subroutine would supply each number in the list to the
primality tester, and verify that the result of each test
is correct.
The counterpart of an executable test suite is an abstract
test suite. However, often terms test suites and test plans
are used, roughly with the same meaning as executable and
abstract test suites, respectively.
