Test Plan - “A software project test plan is a document that describes the objectives, scope, approach, and focus of a software testing effort”
Test Strategy – Test Strategy or Test Approach is a set of guide lines that describes test design. Test strategy says - How testing is going to be performed? What will be the test architecture?

Answer / sitam
Test Strategy is a high-level description of the test levels
to be performed and the testing within those levels for an
organization or program (one or more projects).
Test Plan is a document describing the scope, approach,
resources and schedule of intended test activities. It
identifies amongst others test items, the features to be
tested, the testing tasks, who will do each task, degree of
tester independence, the test environment, the test design
techniques and entry and exit criteria to be used, and the
rationale for their choice,and any risks requiring
contingency planning. It is a record of the test planning
process.

Answer / johhny
What do you think if a company build a process:
PM do all tasks of BA and QC:
- Communicate with Client, Analyze and write requirement
- Assign Developer to implement, review code
- prepare test data, test case and execute Testcase
If project is larger, PM will assign leaders, but the same
tasks with PM, he will seprate BA task, test tasks and
assign to leaders.
