Process impact: This is a test suite for manual system testing. It is just one activity in the overall QA plan. A test case suite is simply a table of contents for the individual test cases. Organizing the suite of test cases by priority, feature area, actor, business object, or release can help identify parts of the system that need additional test cases.
TODO: Before writing individual test cases, list the test cases that you think you will need. Organize them in trees or tables that leaves visible blanks on this page if you are missing test cases. If a blank section of the tree or table does not need test cases, explicitly mark it "N/A", otherwise, mark it "TODO". If one cell or list item contains many tests, break that section out into its own table, as done for the checkout feature below. Choose one or more of the organizations shown below. See the test case format reference page for more tips on specifying tests and test suites.
TIP: Refer back to your use cases document. Use them for ideas and make sure that you cover all of them. Remember that test cases are more precise than use cases, test cases should reference specific details of your implementation, and there may be several test cases for a given use case.
