difference between regression testing and re testing?

Answer Posted / pavan

Retesting:
If a tester finds a bug and after developer fixes that bug
we once again do the testing in order to check the
validation of the bug fixing.

Regession:
If a tester finds a bug and after developer fixes that bug
we retest and also check whether these enhancements or bug
fixing have any side affects on the unchanged code.
