Answer / tushar

A Test strategy would be at a higher level of abstraction
than a test plan.

Ideally a Test Strategy would be put down and test plan
would follwo drilling into the nitty grities of the Testing
to provide a complete picture.

A good analogy would be ,the difference would be the same as
between a product overview pamplet and a product usage
manual, the later being thoroughly detailed.

Answer / kiran kumar

test strategy: A high-level document defining the test
levels to be performed and the testing
within those levels for an organisation or programme (one
or more projects).

test plan: A document describing the scope, approach,
resources and schedule of intended
test activities. It identifies amongst others test items,
the features to be tested, the testing
tasks, who will do each task, degree of tester
independence, the test environment, the test
design techniques and entry and exit criteria to be used,
and the rationale for their choice,
and any risks requiring contingency planning. It is a
record of the test planning process.

unfold all the test strategy and put test condition ,

other conditions to reach the goal
