Q: What is a software project test plan?

A: A software project test plan is a document that describes the objectives, scope, approach and focus of a software testing effort. The process of preparing a test plan is a useful way to think through the efforts needed to validate the acceptability of a software product.

The completed document will help people outside the test group understand the why and how of product validation. It should be thorough enough to be useful, but not so thorough that no one outside the test group will be able to read it.
