Answer / nushar

Yes, you need to write test cases for each and every
permission. I think there should be multiple test cases for
each user to further see if by logging in with a particular
User ID, User is able to do the required functions on the
application.

For Example: If user id has read only/ view only
permissions than user should not be able to do any
modifications.

If user has admin permissions than he can do
X,Y,Z....modifications...Thus, for admin user there will be
multiple test cases...

No,you need not to write test cases for each and every
permission.According to me Single Test case refer to 170
permissions. But depend upon the type of USER.
Example: For Admin User need to write 6 Test Case that under
cones in multiple user also that is created by admin .
For Normal User only 4 Test Case.

Answer / nupur

Test Cases can be clubbed as Anjali is saying but then you
will have a very long script.Imagine running 1 test case
for 5 days and if I user fail than entire TC is failed nad
you would need to reexcute the entire TC. I think this will
be too much of an overhead.

Answer / bablu

First of all you have to have the clear requirements that
those 170 permissions will be used by how many users, like:

user1, user2, user3, user4 etc...
Then based on the users you have to categorize the
permissions, that login as user1 who has permission1,
permission2, etc and verify so and so, etc... by this way
you can reduce the number of test cases by writing each
test cases for each permissions i.e. (170 permissions).
