Anatomy of a Test Case

A test case is a specification of how to test a business component in the system under test. A test case is stored as an XML document, and contains all the information that is necessary to test the component or system.

A test case is a workflow with the test steps connected by paths that represent successful and unsuccessful step conclusions. Assertions can accompany the step and different paths are provided based on the firing of any of the assertions.

Note: Save your test cases regularly.
