Sample Test Case Template With Test Case

Examples [Download]
Last Updated: August 1, 2020

Every day I keep on getting several requests for Test Case Template. And I'm surprised that
many testers are still documenting test cases with Word docs or Excel les.

Most of them prefer excel spreadsheets because they can easily group test cases by test
types and most importantly they can easily get test metrics with Excel formulas. But I’m
sure that as the volume of your tests goes on increasing, you will nd it extremely di cult
to manage.

If you are not using any Test case management tool, then I would strongly recommend you
to use an open-source tool to manage and execute your test cases. 

Test case formats may vary from one organization to another. But using a standard test

cases QA Testing
is one step closer toset Courses
up a testing Automation
 process for your

project.
Types Of Testing  Tutorials 

It also minimizes Ad-hoc testing that is done without proper test case documentation. But
even if you use standard templates, you need to set up test cases writing, review &
approve, test execution and most importantly test report preparation process, etc by using
manual methods.

Also if you have a process to review the test cases by the business team, then you must
format these test cases in a template that is agreed by both the parties.

Recommended Tools
Before continuing to the Test case writing process, we recommend downloading these Test
case management tools. This will ease your test plan and test case writing process
mentioned in this tutorial.

Here is how to make this manual test case management process a bit easier with the help
of simple testing templates.

Note: I've listed the maximum number of elds related to a test case. But it is advised to
use only those elds which are used by your team. Also, if you think any eld used by your
team is missing from this list, then feel free to add it to your customized template.

Standard Fields Of A Sample Test Case Template

There are certain standard elds to be considered while preparing a Test case template.

Several standard elds of a sample Test Case template are listed below.

Test case ID: Unique ID is required for each test case. Follow some convention to indicate
the types of the test. For Example, ‘TC_UI_1' indicating ‘user interface test case #1'.

Test priority (Low/Medium/High): This is very useful while test execution. Test priority for
business rules and functional test cases can be medium or higher whereas minor user
interface cases can be of a low priority. Test priority should always be set by the reviewer.

Module Name: Mention the name of the main module or the sub-module.

Test Designed By Name of the Tester. 

Home Resources FREE EBooks QA Testing  Courses  Automation 
Test Designed Date: Date when it was written.
Types Of Testing  Tutorials 

Test Executed By Name of the Tester who executed this test. To be lled only after test
execution.

Test Execution Date: Date when the test was executed.

Test Title/Name: Test case title. For Example, verify the login page with a valid username
and password.

Test Summary/Description: Describe the test objective in brief.

Pre-conditions: Any prerequisite that must be ful lled before the execution of this test
case. List all the pre-conditions in order to execute this test case successfully.

Dependencies: Mention any dependencies on the other test cases or test requirements.

Test Steps: List all the test execution steps in detail. Write test steps in the order in which
they should be executed. Make sure to provide as many details as you can.

Pro Tip: In order to manage a test case e ciently with a lesser number of elds use
this eld to describe the test conditions, test data and user roles for running the test.

Test Data: Use of test data as an input for this test case. You can provide di erent data
sets with exact values to be used as an input.

Expected Result:  What should be the system output after test execution? Describe the
expected result in detail including message/error that should be displayed on the screen.

Post-condition: What should be the state of the system after executing this test case?

Actual result: The actual test result should be lled after test execution. Describe the
system behavior after test execution.

Status (Pass/Fail): If an actual result is not as per the expected result, then mark this test
as failed. Otherwise, update it as passed.

Notes/Comments/Questions: If there are some special conditions to support the above

elds, which can’t be described above or if there are any questions related to expected or
actual results then mention them here.

Add the following elds if necessary:

Defect ID/Link: If the test status is failed, then include the link to the defect log or
mention the defect number.

Home Resources FREE EBooks QA Testing  Courses  Automation 
Test Type/Keywords: This eld can be used to classify the tests based on test types. For
Types Of Testing  Tutorials 
Example, functional, usability, business rules, etc.

Requirements: Requirements for which this test case is being written for. Preferably the
exact section number of the requirement doc.

Attachments/References: This eld is useful for complex test scenarios in order to explain
the test steps or expected results using a Visio diagram as a reference. Provide the link or
location to the actual path of the diagram or document.

Automation? (Yes/No): Whether this test case is automated or not. It is useful to track the
automation status when test cases are automated.

With the help of the above elds, I've prepared an example test case template for your
reference.

Also, here you can refer a few more articles on writing e ective test cases. Use these test
writing guidelines and the above template to write and manage the test cases e ectively
on your project.

Undoubtedly, the test cases will di er depending upon the functionality of the software
that it is intended for. However, given below is a template that you can always use for
documenting the test cases without bothering about what your application is doing.

Conclusion
Personally, I prefer to use a Test Case Management tool. You can start with an open-source
tool. It will be a good addition to your e orts to set up the testing process and meanwhile,
it will also save a lot of time instead of manually maintaining these documents.

We have also seen test case templates and a few examples using very good, quality
documentation. I hope this article would have been helpful to you.

We would be glad to know your thoughts, comments/suggestions about this article.
