Some "Test Case" Examples:

Each test case should be based on the test subject's requirements / needs (customers, Standards, legal, manufacturing capabilities, et al) that are being tested (verified / validated)

 Recommended In-House Test Format:

Your in-house test documentation should be structured as follows, each test in a formal document / Test Report or Lab Book, preferable per an SOP on testing, as follows:

• Title;
• Test Number, date(s);
• Description, Scope, Purpose...;
• Pre-approvals signatures/dates, including Tester, Verifyer/QC;
• Material (Description, Part Numbers, Quantity, Lot Numbers...);
• Test Equipment (Description, Asset No., Item No., Serial Numbers... (as appropriate));
• Test Set-Up (Drawings, Schematics, Photos, Diagrams, etc.);
• Predetermined acceptance criteria / expectations;
• Test Requirements;
• Test Cases / Protocol (at least one for each requirement, single or in combination);
• Results (filled in test cases, data);
• Conclusions (how test cases fulfilled pre-determined acceptance criteria ("pass/fail"));
• Post approvals, including tester, Verifyer/QC. 
• Appendix, as needed.

 Include enough information to allow the test to be replicated and obtain similar results.
