Test plan

A test plan is a predetermined list of testing steps that need to be performed before shipping a product to the general public. For example, a company may create a test plan for a new hardware product they are developing. The test plan may contain what needs to be tested and how it should be tested. An individual or group of individuals would then go through that list verifying each of the tests properly works with the new hardware device and what he or she did to verify that step works on the device.

Test plans help a company identify what needs to be tested, what has already been tested, how a test was performed, and the progress of a the overall testing before shipping a product. Unlike a standard test, test plans are often more in depth and contain several hundred or thousands of different items that need to be tested.
