Answer / prem
The difference between "Test Methodology" Vs "Test
Strategy" is alike "Knowledge" Vs "Application of
Knowledge".
"Test Methodology" is like the "Bible" with all the
teachings and "Test Strategy" is the usage and application
of the teachings in real life.
"Test Methodology" is process oriented whereas "Test
Strategy" is result oriented.

Answer / mahalakshmi
Test Strategy defines all the steps for handling a
particular project.
A test stategy document would generally contain the
following
* The scope (complete cycle,only few features,new features
and major bugs etc) and duration of the testing should be
clearly set/defined.
* The No: of ppl required for the project is determised
from the duration and scope of the testing.
* The ppl/resourses should be identified and their role
defined (manager,test lead,tester etc)
* Tools and infrastructure required/deployed.
* The testing process decided for this project
*defining the entry criteria,exit criteria,
*The different phases planned and
*the types of testing
(Sanity,functionality,stress,regression etc)covered at the
different stages of the product life cycle and also in each
phase and the order in which it will be executed.
i.e initially(Alpha stage) the product could be very
unstable with very few basic features.Then the scope of the
testing would only be test against requirement and
functionality testing etc. AD-Hoc,regression,stress testing
etc will not be done in this stage. But as the product
reaches a more mature stage (beta) all the phases/types of
testing would be covered.
