When in the testing process Tester report a bug, after that
it get assigned to a specified developer. After fixation of
that bug it again comes for retesting to that the bug
really get fixed or not. It is also called as Confirmation

Due to fixation of that specific bug it might affect some
adverse effect to other modules then those newly generated
bugs are termed as regression Bugs. Regression testing is
generally Automated.

What is the diff between retest bug and regression bug?..

Answer / mohdar7d

Retesting :- "Rexecution of fail testing".
Retesting is running the previously failed test cases again on the new software to verify whether the defects posted earlier are fixed or not.
In simple word, Retesting is testing a specific bug after it was fixed.
Regression Testing :- "Rexecution of pass testing".
In three cases we needs to do regression testing-
(i) After Bug Fix
(ii) After enhancement or new feature added
(iii) Environment change
