Answer / venkat
It is a type of testing in which one will perform testing on
the already tested functionality ones again.It is usually
done by two scenarios
When ever the test engineer raises a defect developer
rectifies it next build is released to the testing
department
then the test engineer will test the rectified functionality
as well as related functionality ones again in order to
ensure while rectifying the defect the related functionality
is not effected.
when ever the new changes are proposed by the customer
incorporated by the developer and the build is released to
the testing department then the test engineer will test the
already tested related functionality ones again in order to
ensure that the old functionality remains same despite of
new changes
