At the request of several QAs in the community, here is a test plan template you can use in your projects.

Open the template in Google Docs ↗

Parts of a test plan: scope, strategy, environments and data, criteria, risks and schedule

Always remember to check the version, because I will keep uploading updates. This first version is complete: use whatever information you need and, if an item does not apply to your project, simply remove it.

An important note: there are many ways to write a test plan, so this is not the only one. But it is the one I have used for a long time and clients have always been happy with it.

I hope you find it useful. If you have any questions about a field or how to fill something in, let me know.
