Topic: Definition of a Test Plan

Message

   A test plan can be defined as a document describing the scope, approach, 
resources, and schedule of intended testing activities. It identifies test 
items, the features to be tested, the testing tasks, who will do each task, and 
any risks requiring contingency planning.

In software testing, a test 
plan gives detailed testing information regarding an upcoming testing effort, 
including

* Scope of testing
* Schedule
* Test Deliverables
* 
Release Criteria
* Risks and Contingencies

It is also be described as 
a detail of how the testing will proceed, who will do the testing, what will be 
tested, in how much time the test will take place, and to what quality level the 
test will be performed.
