A test case is a set of conditions or variables under which a tester will determine whether a system under test satisfies requirements or works correctly.

A test case is a document, which has a set of test data, preconditions, expected results and postconditions, developed for a particular test scenario in order to verify compliance against a specific requirement.

The process of developing test cases can also help find problems in the requirements or design of an application.

1- Test Case ID:                         The ID of the test case.
2- Test Case Name:                   Test case name or title.
3- Test Suite ID:                         The ID of the test suite to which this test case belongs.
4- Test Case Summary:            The summary / objective of the test case.
5- Test Case Design By:           The name of the author of the test case.
6- Test Case Design Date:        The creation date of the test case.
7- Test Case Excecuted By:     The name of the person who executed the test.
8- Test Case Excecution Date: The date of execution of the test.
9- Prerequisites:                         Any prerequisites or preconditions that must be fulfilled prior to executing the test.
10- Dependencies:                     Any dependency of test case to another test case.
11- Priority:                                 Set the test case priority based on priority & saverity.
12- Related Requirement:         The ID of the requirement this test case relates/traces to.
13- Test Data:                             The test data, or links to the test data, that are to be used while conducting the test.
14- Test Procedure(Steps):       Step-by-step procedure to execute the test.
15- Expected Result:                 The expected result of the test.
16- Actual Result:                      The actual result of the test; to be filled after executing the test.
17- Status:                                   Pass or Fail. Other statuses can be ‘Not Executed’ if testing is not performed and ‘Blocked’ if testing is blocked.
18- Remarks/Notes:                    Any comments on the test case or test execution.
19- Post Conditions:                  Post conditions for test case after test case excecution.
20- Test Environment:               The environment (Hardware/Software/Network) in which the test was executed.
