Software Test Plan

Software Test Plan: The test plan document typically contains the strategic approach to testing a system (software). Planning is very important in everyone's life, similarly for testing the software also.



 There are also other IEEE documents that suggest what should be contained in a test plan:

• 829-1983 IEEE Standard for Software Test Documentation (superseded by 829-1998)^[2]
• 829-1998 IEEE Standard for Software Test Documentation (superseded by 829-2008)^[3]
• 1008-1987 IEEE Standard for Software Unit Testing^[4]
• 1012-2004 IEEE Standard for Software Verification & Validation Plans^[5]
• 1059-1993 IEEE Guide for Software Verification & Validation Plans (withdrawn)^[6]
