hi guys,i wanna make small modifications to the answer given
by Nemade.When ever tester gets requirements he will read
those and start writing scenarios first.Each scenario is the
method by which perticular feature in the application can be
tested.in this way tester will write different scenarios by
which that perticular feature in the application can be
tested.Now,by considering those scenarious tester will write
all possible testcases for each scenario.
So writing scenarious is mandatory before starting writing
test cases.

Test case : is a document that consists of
the following
:Testcase Id , testcase name , testcase desciption ,
prioroty ,reproducable,Steps ,description ,Expected ,Actual
,result
Test case nothing detailed desscription of the each and
every step to validate the expected value
Test Scenario
test scenario is a format which gives the information or
flow of application .i.e it is like story
ex:
sc1: login screen:login screen consists of username ,
password ,
sc2 :if username and password is correct login in to
application
sc3: if username and password does not match display a
message
by seeing testscenarios only we will write testcases

Answer / gousia parveen
Test Scenario is what to test.
Test Case is how to test.
In some companies,they directly prepare Testcases from
usecase diagrams
In some companies,They prepare scenarios from those
scenrios,they prepare test Cases,Its all depends upon company.
For example:We have login page with user id,Password and
login button
Here scenario is Login button,
Here Test cases for this scenario are
1.Blank
2.Invalid user id with valid password,
3.Valid user id with invalid password,
4.Valid user and valid password.
Depends upon the client requirements......

Answer / vani
Identifying the TestScenarios is mandatory, with out the
Scenarios writing the testCases is confusion, So only few
Organizations will directly write the testcases, without
the Scenarios.
