TEST CASE:it is a step by step procedure for verifing the
functionality of an application
TEST SUITE:the way in which we are grouped the testcase
based on module wise structure and sub module wise
structure along with features.
TEST SCENARIO:it is a sequence of events.writing the test
scenario in detailed is test case
we didn't write test scenario for FUNCTIONAL TESTING bcoz
there is no sequnces of events in FT we check each and
individual component.
TEST PLAN:it is a document cosists of complete testing
activity for a successful delivery of a project.
TEST SCRIPT:when the test cases are automated by using
automation tool it is called as TEST SCRIPT.

Test Case : A Set of input values, execution precondition,
expected result and execution post condition developed for a
particular object or test condition.
Test Suite : A Set of several test cases for a component or
a system under test. Where the postcondition of one test is
often used as the precondition for the next one.
Test Script : A document specifying a sequence of action for
the execution of test.
(Test Scripts are mostly used in Automation rather than
Manual, anyway the concept is same for both).
Test Scenario : Test Scenario is mostly likely a Test Script.
Test Plan : A document descibing the objective, scope and
approach, resourse and schedule of intended test activities.
Which includes
- Test Items
- Object to be tested and not to be tested.
- Risk analysis.
- Resource allocation
- Who will do each task.
- Entry and Exit criteria

Hi Purni,
Test Script is not a type of file. If a Test case is
automated , then its a test script. A test script contains
code.
In winrunner - its similar to C
In QTP - VB Script
In Silk - 4T
in Rational - VB
Test Suite - Collection of test cases
Test Scenario - End to end flow of a product.
