As per my knowledge A test script is a short program written in a programming language used to test part of the functionality of a software system. A written set of steps that should be performed automatically can also be called a test script.

Test scripts written as a short program can either be written using a special manual functional GUI test tool or in a well-known programming language (such as [[C++]], Tcl, Expect, Java, Perl, Python, or more recently, Ruby). Automated test tools can test many areas of system functionality such as the user interface, performance of the system, the system code and the requirements.

Test Data : The definition (usually formal) of a collection of test input values that are consumed during the execution of a test, and expected results referenced for comparative purposes.

Test Script : Commonly used to refer to the automated test procedure used with a test harness.

test data us prepared by the testing team with the help of the Business analyst team. Then they map it back against each test cases. So at the time of testing you must have the data ready for each test case.
