Test Scripts vs Test Cases

Let’s discuss some of the basic differences between test scripts and test cases.

Image description

Software testing is a vast process of validating an application by following commands. Some use test cases, while others rely on test scripts when they move to automation. Both of these options work for testing software. But they only yield the best results and the correct reports when used at the right time.

Test cases mostly work well for manual testing and no-code automation. For instance, the above example of writing test cases with Testsigma shows how automation tools easily support plain English to perform complex test scenarios. On the other hand, test scripts are better suited for automation testing using code-based tools. When put in motion with the right set of prerequisites, test scripts, and test cases, verify the applications under test for all their features.
