What exactly is a test case (Litigation)?

Hi I am doing politics and one of the topics is pressure groups. It says they can influence the Judiciary (Mainly US supreme court) by funding test cases. I'm not quite sure what a test case is or how they work/ are put into practice.

Appreciate any help :smile:
Where there is a potential for a group or class action they pick one of the cases to go to trial. If they win the other cases are then settled.
