Answer / ashokkumar

Consider an Example.
you have modules like add, delete, modify, cancel and ok
buttons.
you have already 150 test cases for the above.

Now You are going to introduce an other module ie, edit,
for this You have 50 test cases.

After integrated edit with other modules,
you check 50 test cases working correctly or not. This is
Regression Testing,

Now all together you should check all the 150 + 50 test
cases, ie called Retesting.

Retesting :running a test morethan once
Regression testing:It is a test used to verify that already

any unexpected side effects after fixing a bug.

what we can conclude is if regression testing is a super-
set then retesting is a subset
