What is a Test Suite and a Test Script?
The most common term for a collection of test cases is a test suite. The test suite often also contains more detailed instructions or goals for each collection of test cases. It contains a section where the tester identifies the system configuration used during testing. A group of test cases may also contain prerequisite states or steps, and descriptions of the following tests. Collections of test cases are sometimes incorrectly termed a test plan. They may also be called a test script, or even a test scenario. A test plan is the approach that will be used to test the system, not the individual tests. Most companies that use automated testing will call the code that is used their test scripts.
