WHAt is diff between test plan and test planning?

Answer Posted / vimal

A test plan is a document that describes the objectives,
scope, approach, and focus of a software testing effort.The
following are the items that might be included in a test
plan, depending on the particular project:

•Identification of software including version/release
numbers
•Revision history of document including authors, dates,
approvals
•Table of Contents
•Purpose of document, intended audience
•Objective of testing effort
•Software product overview
•Relevant related document list, such as requirements,
design documents, other test plans, etc.
•Relevant standards or legal requirements
•Traceability requirements
•Relevant naming conventions and identifier conventions
•Overall software project organization and
personnel/contact-info/responsibilties
•Test organization and personnel/contact-
info/responsibilities
•Assumptions and dependencies
•Project risk analysis
•Testing priorities and focus
•Scope and limitations of testing
•Test outline - a decomposition of the test approach by
test type, feature, functionality, process, system, module,
etc. as applicable
•Outline of data input equivalence classes, boundary value
analysis, error classes
•Test environment - hardware, operating systems, other
required software, data configurations, interfaces to other
systems
•Test environment validity analysis - differences between
the test and production systems and their impact on test
validity.
•Test environment setup and configuration issues
•Software CM processes
•Test data setup requirements
•Database setup requirements
•Outline of system-logging/error-logging/other
capabilities, and tools such as screen capture software,
that will be used to help describe and report bugs
•Test automation - justification and overview
•Test tools to be used, including versions, patches, etc.
•Test script/test code maintenance processes and version
control
•Problem tracking and resolution - tools and processes
•Project test metrics to be used
•Reporting requirements and testing deliverables
•Software entrance and exit criteria
•Initial sanity testing period and criteria
•Test suspension and restart criteria
•Personnel allocation
•Personnel pre-training needs
•Test site/location
•Others

Whereas Test Planning is the process of creating and
maintaining a test plan and is the process of thinking
about the activities required to create a desired future on
some scale. It is a formal procedures or an endeavor used
for the creation of documents, diagrams, objectives to met,
strategy to be followed or meetings to discuss the
important issues to be addressed.

I think now the concept has been cleared.
