Which is better among test scripts vs test cases?
I know that test cases are written in human readable language, whereas test scripts are written in code and mostly done for automated testing.
But can anyone tell me what else makes them different from each other?
Is there any logical difference between them or are these interchangeable terms?
I am expecting all answers must be aligned, But there is a difference between test script vs test case.
