Answer / srikant behera
First comes the Test Strategy and later comes the test plan.
There can be multiple test strategy, but only one plan of
execution.
Test Strategy to be done along with Management and Test
plan to be done along with the team
Test Strategy decides the time lines. Test plan executes
based on the times lines.
You cannot change the test strategy once its freezed. But u
can change the test plan even though if its freezed.
