why we develop Test plan for a project ?

Answer Posted / sagar more

A better question is why plan anything? You plan those
things that you know are more complicated than what you can
do by the seat of your pants. You plan things for which
order and completeness are important. Even the simplest
software system is so complex and is so prone to failure,
that planning to test is just as essential as planning your
design.
The second major reason is that, as an industry, we are
doing a lousy job at releasing quality products. Current
industry standards are that tested and released software
averages more than ten significant bugs per 1000 lines of
code. How many hundreds of thousand of lines was that last
project? Thinking ahead and planning your testing is one
way to cut that down.
All of these are good starting reasons for having a
software test plan.
