Answer / aditya

The first thing is you have done re-testing and the bugs
which you have found earlier are fixed and working fine.

If there is new bug found due to the fix of other bugs,
then that testing is called regression testing.

If you are a white box tester, then you'll test the
application by going through the code, i.e if statement,
while loop, for loop, etc....

Answer / vijayaram chalapati

The answer is REGRESSION Testing.

When you are verifying the 2 bugs in general we will write
the steps and description in the bug details. i.e. in BUG1
the functionality 1 is working in functionality 2 is not
working and posted BUG1 for functionality2.

So while verifying the BUG1 the functionality1 is failed and
functionality 2 is working fine.

According to this the functionality 1 related to the BUG1
should be verified this is nothing but REGRESSION testing.

is any problem ?? U r just re-testing those reported bugs.

I had given same reply to the interviewer( We will do
regression testing).

I dont know what was he expecting....... I was
confused.....

Answer / smudge

I agreee with the majority the obviouc answer is regression
testing, however there is a possibility that if the new
fault was introduced by that single line of new code then a
code review may find it.

Answer / acs

Hi...For such kind of Questions we need to be presize,

How to get bugs if the developer has added a single line
due to which some error is happening in the code and due to
which our application behaviour is not according to the
requirement is by doing "Regression" Testing.

We can do a Sanity Testing and a Regression Testing.
Finally a Smoke Testing.

Now suppose we get bugs then as a tester ,its the
responsibility of the tester to add new bugs into the Bug
Tracker.

But suppose the same bug arises again,then tester will
Reopen the bug

Answer / saff

if ony retestign is done and no regression testing it is
hard to find the hidden error in untested area

only regression testing/sanity will expose the eroors
affected by the bug fixes in one area to the other area

and when u do complete system testing and/or end to end
testing we can find bug due to the bug fixes

if r question is to find how the bug occured
then if u debug the test result or check the log file
