If there are 20 Test cases in a module, in the first cycle
the test cases 8,9,10 has been failed, once the issues has

Retesting means testing on the same build with different
inputs.
Regression testing involves testing after the bug is being
fixed by the developer to check whether it has affected
other modules of the build.

Regression Testing is a type of testing in which one will perform testing on the same fuctionality again and again. To do the same it will be done it 2 situvations.
1. When ever the build is released to the testing department, the test engineer will perform the testing on the build if they found any defects then send it to the development department. once the next build is released to the testing. the testing engineer will perform testing to the related functionality and also the defect fuctionality once again.
2. When ever the new features are added to the application then the build is released to the testing department the testing will perform testing on the related functionality to those newly added features once again.
Re-testing: It is a type of testing in which one will perform will testing on the application with multiple set of values. In order to come a conclusion weather it is working fine or not.
Retesting starts from the first build on contionues upto the last build.
Regression testing starts from the secound build and contionous up to the last build.
During Regression testing also the retesting will be conducted.
