Answer / vinodh anandhan

No, You dont want to write the Actual Result. But you have
to have fill up the Expected Result. While executing the
testcases only actual result will come. Based on that we
have to decide PASS or FAIL.

Answer / murali

U should not write the Actual Result unless u execute the
test case. So u need not write the status as well. So only
fill the Expected Result column and leave the Actual Result
and Status columns empty.
