What is the difference between Test script and Test case..

Answer / deepshikha

Test Script:

It is the command language that we write to perform
testing. For e.g. if we use Rational Robot we shall write
all commands in sqa Basic commands. Scripting is a program
which automatically checks "n" number of inputs for a
particular requirement or a check point.
Furher more, if we are performing the database check point
for say, 1000 data, we can write a program (script) which
sahll automatically input and check for all 1000 entries in
the database.

Test Case:

It is the actual step by step representation for all valid
and invalid inputs. Its a detailed discription for all
inputs (valid and invalid) and covers all requirements.
