Answer / meha
Hey , I just explain Test Plan neccesity in an example.
To construct a building a planning is must. Planning is
needed to make structured and authorized contruction of a
build. Plan will tell the optimum utilization of the
resource(land,bricks,cement,iron rods,stones,human
resource).It gives a predefined view of a building before
making it in real. If you are not confortable after the
plan , you can do rework and re-plan the thing which you
need finally .It reduce the waste basically.
Like that Test Plan is essential before drafting/creating
or preceeding with the actual setup(Creation of Test
Cases,execution, defect reporting)
It shows the scope of the testing and dependent parameters,
risks,Test Environment, Test Approach, Fuctionality and
even non fuctionality too.
Cut and shout the Scope of your testing.
