Answer / ravi kumar

Regression testing is done to check two important aspects.

1. Whether a previously posted bug is fixed in the new
build or not.
2. Whether fixing of bug caused any problems elsewhere in
the build.

Pls correct if I am wrong.

Answer / neeraj sharma

Hi Ravi,

As much as I know your 2nd point is valid and related to
Regression Testing. But 1st point defines the process of
Retesting.

Hence in my point of view- Regression Testing is done to
ensure that any Bug Fixation, any change or any
modification made to the software application has not
brocken any existing functionality.
