Software Testing Tutorial #31 - Test Scenario Vs Test Case

In this Software Testing Tutorial, we will learn about the difference between the test scenario vs the test case. The test scenario is high-level documentation about what you are going to test in the application whereas the test case is a detailed description of how you are going to test that particular scenario.

Test scenarios will be mostly one-liners however test cases are step-by-step instructions to perform operations in any software and verify that the application behaves as expected.

**Notes: Understanding Test Scenarios and Test Cases in Software Testing - Software Testing Tutorial #31**

**Test Scenario vs. Test Case:**
- Test scenarios and test cases serve distinct purposes in the testing process.

**Test Scenario:**
- A test scenario is a high-level description of what you intend to test.
- It provides a broad overview of specific functionality to be examined.
- Test scenarios are concise and describe the aspects to be tested.
- Derived from requirements documents.
- Example: "Test login with valid username and password."

**Test Case:**
- A test case is a detailed description of how to test a specific scenario.
- It provides step-by-step instructions for executing the test.
- Test cases are comprehensive and actionable guides for testing.
- Derived from test scenarios.
- Example: Detailed steps and expected results for testing login with valid credentials.

**Relationship Between Test Scenarios and Test Cases:**
- Test scenarios are derived from requirements and provide a high-level overview.
- Test cases are created from test scenarios and offer detailed instructions on how to execute tests.
- This structured hierarchy ensures comprehensive coverage and clarity in testing efforts.

**Practical Example:**
- Example involving the "Registration" functionality of an e-commerce website.
- Test Scenarios for Registration: High-level overviews like "Register with an email" or "Register with Google."
- Test Cases for "Register with an Email" Scenario: Detailed steps for executing this scenario, including expected results.

Thanks alot Sir for this detailed information.

[Nidzaq]

Hello Manish, thank you very much for this great content you are delivering to the community :-) When we talk about test scenarios..they are high level test cases and that is clear, but they are also been described as "any defined functionality" for example login functionality, registration functionality, add to basket functionality etc. So is it correct to tell that we can talk about test scenarios in "broad sense" ( any defined functionality ) and in more "narrow" sense ( high level test cases)?

[huongvuS]

Thank you a lot for your clear, well defined explanation. Though, I have a small question, teacher. Are test scenarios and test conditions the same? Someone said they are used interchangeably, some sources clarified that they are different. I'm so confused with those two terms, but I lean towards the first opinion. Do you have any ideas about this? Thank you very much, teacher!!

[raviteja-qkbr]

Super and nice explain Thank you sosososososmuch

[tarikkirat]

You made a great explanation about test scenarios and test cases but you should show them on excell as more detailed to differentiate test scenarios and test case descriptions.
