Manual Test--mtm

In Test Manager, a test plan is used to manage the entire test effort for an iteration. Includes test cases, test results, and configuration of planned tests.

Test Center is divided into 4 main areas of activity:

Plan---is used to manage the entire test plan, including the properties of the plan, and the separate test sets and test cases that make up the plan.

The test---is used to browse the list of tests that can be executed, from which you can run test cases, save test results, record bugs, and so on.

Track---can modify the build version currently being tested in the track area. The area can also help testers discover which tests are most important for the current build version.

Organize---makes it easy to access and modify all test cases, test configurations, and other test plans.

The Test Plan property Page section contains metadata that describes the plan, such as name, description, and owner. Metadata is used to describe test objectives, but there is no real impact on the functionality of the test plan.

Test cases can be organized into one of the following 3 test set types:

A requirement-based test set---contains all the test cases that are connected to a requirement work item through a tests relationship. For any iterative process of application development, it is often desirable to begin adding all the requirements that need to be implemented to the iteration. This allows you to create and execute test cases to verify that the application implements the required functionality. ADD Requirement

Query-based test set---you can specify a dynamic work item query for the selected test case. New query-based Suite
A static test set---A list of test cases that can be manually added to a test set. A static test set can also be used as a container for other test sets, so the test cases can be organized hierarchically. New Suite

The test set status is one of the following 3 valid states:

In planning---indicate that the test cases are still being written, and these use cases are not yet operational.
In progress---this means that the Test team can run the test cases in the test case set.
Completed---When you no longer need to run all the test cases in a test set, you can mark the test set as that state.
