The testing stage for a product belonging to a family is a crucial and expensive part of development. Yet the derivation of test cases for product families has so far received little attention. We focus here on test planning, that is the most critical part of testing. We outline a simple methodology we are developing for this purpose, called PLUTO, relying on the early requirements specification expressed as Use Cases. We also overview the related literature.
