what is the difference between test case and test scenario

Answer Posted / mustafa_7_8_6

Hi!
Difference between Test Case & Test Scenario


Test Case : Is a document which describes the input,
Action/Event and expected response to determine whether the
particular functionality of the application is working fine.
It is a commonly used term for a specific test. This is
usually the smallest unit of testing. A Test Case will
consist of information such as requirements testing, test
steps, verification steps, prerequisites, outputs, test
environment, etc. A set of inputs, execution preconditions,
and expected outcomes developed for a particular objective,
such as to exercise a particular program path or to verify
compliance with a specific requirement.

Test Scenario : A set of test cases that ensure that the
business process flows are tested from end to end. They may
be independent tests or a series of tests that follow each
other, each dependent on the output of the previous one.
Definition of a set of test cases or test scripts and the
sequence in which they are to be executed.
