What is the difference between Retesting and Data Driven
Testing?

Answer Posted / rajendra

hai satya,
absolutely your answer is wrong.
Retesting means not checking whether the bug is
fixed or not.

Retesting means checking the behaviour of system for
different sets of inputs.

One thing is important that system may behave differently
for different i/p's.

Retesting is an manual procedure to check the system with
different i/p's

if you come for DataDriven Testing also called DDT in a
short form is automation method for testing appilcation for
different i/p's using winRunner or QTP tool.

Finally, In a nutshell retesting is manual process of
testing application with different i/p's.

Data driven testing means testing the application with
different types of inputs using a automated tool.
In DDT we supply inputs from flat files(note pad),
database,excel sheel..etc

if any body have doubt please mail me or you can call me
