hi friends
retesting: testing the previous defect fixes
if we have 3 modules in a build,we got 10 defects ,after
receving(rectifing)the build from dev team, we r going to
be tested only these defects, is called "retesting".
with these defects and before executed defects are also
tested here in regression testing (i.e.. these defects r
any cause to other problems)

regression:testing the application, by previous defects has
made any changes to other parts of the application.

Answer / santhoshkumar

Re-Testing:Testing the application solving the bug is fixed or
not called as Re-Testing.


Regression Testing:
On the modified build any side effects are
coming we are going to conduct the testing called as
Regression Testing.

Answer / raja selvan

Regression Testing : To ensure that changes in one part of
the software has no ill effect in the other part of the
software. Whenever the changes has made in the source code,
a set of pre defined testcase has been executed, check
whether any other portion of the sotware affected.

Re- test - Retesting means we testing only the certain part
of an application again and not considering how it will
effect in the other part or in the whole
application.

Answer / sirisha

Regression testing is done on modified build,to test
whether the changes made on the build have effected the
already existing functionality or not,i.e to check whether
the old bugs are modified or not and also any new bugs are
raised or not by the modification of old bugs.

Retesting is done on the same build with multiple sets of
data.

Answer / deva kumar

Regression Testing: Testing the application which is already
tested is known as regression testing and verifying whether
cloed defect shows any impact on the application .

Answer / rajmohan singh

RE-TESTING - TEST THE APPLICATION WITH MULTIPLE TIMES WITH
DIFFERENT TEST DATA TO CONFIRM THE FUNCTIONALTY OF

ATION AND IMPECT OF CHANGE ON APPLICATION.

the defected modules or not. Whereas Regression Testing is

other modules or not

Answer / sudhakar8

Regression Testing:
Objective is to check the new functionalites have been
incorporated correctly with out failing the existing
functionalities.

Retesting:
re-execution of testcases on same application build with
diferent inputs or testdata

Answer / vijay

Regression testing---Reexecution of the test cases on
modified building.

Re-testing--Re execuiton of the test cases on same building
with different input data.

Answer / mahesh

Regression Testing-re-testing after fixes or modifications
of the software or its environment. It can be difficult to
determine how much re-testing is needed, especially near
the end of the development cycle. Automated testing tools
can be especially useful for this type of testing.

Re-testing--Retesting is done on the same build with
multiple sets of data.
