difference between validation and regression testing
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Both are interrelated.
1) Regression Testing is a Testing Technique that we use to
validate/ensure that the earlier tested module doesn't lead
to any defects after the integration with other
modules.Means it works properly after integration.
2)Validation is the major thing in the whole process, Based
on that we decide whether the product meet the SRS, and
ready for deployment...

Regression Testing:
The objective of regression testing is to ensure software remains intact.
A baseline set of data and scripts will be maintained and executed to verify changes introduced during the release have not “undone” any previous code.
Expected results from the baseline are compared to results of the software being regression tested.
All discrepancies will be highlighted and accounted for, before testing proceeds to the next level.
Validation:
Validation checks that the product design satisfies or fits the intended usage (high-level checking) – i.e., you built the right product.
This is done through dynamic testing and other forms of review.
The process of evaluating software during or at the end of the development process to determine whether it satisfies specified requirements.

Validation: validation is main testing of the application.
the execpected results need to check with actual results.
Regression: Re execution of the test cases on modified
build is called Regression testing.
