Manual Testing Process
Manual Testing Process :
Process is a roadmap to develop the project is consists a number of sequential steps.
Software Testing Life Cycle:
• Test Plan
• Test Development
• Test Execution
• Analyse Results
• Defect Tracking
• Summarise Report
Test Plan :
It is a document which describes the testing environment, purpose, scope, objectives, test strategy, schedules, mile stones, testing tool, roles and responsibilities, risks, training, staffing and who is going to test the application, what type of tests should be performed and how it will track the defects.
Test Development :
• Preparing test cases
• Preparing test data
• Preparing test procedure
• Preparing test scenario
• Writing test script
Test Execution :
In this phase we execute the documents those are prepared in test development phase.
Analyse result :
Once executed documents will get results either pass or fail. we need to analyse the results during this phase.
Defect Tracking :
When ever we get defect on the application we need to prepare the bug report file and forwards to Test Team Lead and Dev Team. The Dev Team will fix the bug. Again we have to test the application. This cycle repeats till we get the software with our defects.
Summarise Reports :
• Test Reports
• Bug Reports
• Test Documentation

Yes i think the flow would be the same for all types of testing . If am wrong do tell me.

Yes, Testing life cycle is same for all testing. But we can include Regression testing phase before delivering your final results.

automation testing is better it saves the time when we are doing regression testing,

what is testcase?
what is test scenario?

First of all comes the Test Scenario then the Test Cases. A Test Scenario can have one or more Test Cases. For example : Imagine a Web Application (Free email provider - rediffmail.com)
Test Scenario :
1. Login in to my email account
2. Checking the mail from ‘Max’
Test Cases :
1.1 Logging into my email by giving the username and password in the homepage (This test cases will have all the step by step procedure to log in by giving your usename and password)
1.2 Signing up and then logging into your mail ID (This will have steps as mentioned above but which includes Sign up also)
So for a single scenario we have 2 Test Cases.
Hope it helped you understand the concept of Test Scenarios and Test Cases.
OTHERS CORRECT ME IF I AM WRONG

The flow of testing is almost the same everywhere,but the major thing is study,analyse the requirements then start thinking about the scenarios and automatically Test cases will follow.
