what is the difference between test strategy and test plan?
Answer Posted / shwetketu rastogi
"Test strategy is an important yet little-described aspect
of test methodology. Let me introduce three definitions:
Test Plan: the set of ideas that guide a test project
Test Strategy: the set of ideas that guide test design
Test Logistics: the set of ideas that guide the application
of resources to fulfill a test strategy
I find these ideas to be a useful jumping-off point. Here
are some implications: •The test plan is the sum of test
strategy and test logistics.
•The test plan document does not necessarily contain a test
plan. This is because many test plan documents are created
by people who are following templates without understanding
them, or writing things to please their bosses, without
knowing how to fulfill their promises, or simply because it
once was a genuine test plan but now is obsolete.
•Conversely, a genuine test plan is not necessarily
documented. This is because new ideas may occur to you each
day that change how you test.
