The predecessor lectio is What Manual Test Is.

Script

The English word, case, originally derived from a Latin noun casus that meant an accident, event, occurrence; occasion, opportunity.

from Latin (“a falling, a fall; ; noun case”), perfect passive participle of cado (“to fall, to drop”).

In software engineering, a test case is a specification of the inputs, execution conditions, testing procedure, and expected results that define a single test to be executed to achieve a particular software testing objective, such as to exercise a particular program path or to verify compliance with a specific requirement.[1] Test cases underlie testing that is methodical rather than haphazard. A battery of test cases can be built to produce the desired coverage of the software being tested. Formally defined test cases allow the same tests to be run repeatedly against successive versions of the software, allowing for effective and consistent regression testing.[2]


Those user stories that have been used for the development can be perfectly used for progression testing. Regularly, any acceptance test involves these stories.
