testing?

Answer Posted / g. sambashiva rao

impact of the bug fixed poart of the existing build of the
application on the other functionalities of the same build
of application, or to test the impact of the newly added
functionality (enhancements in the application)on the
existing functionality of the current version of the
application is Regression testing, (Impact analysis process
is carried out in this case)

The process of testing the application rigorously with
all the possible inputs to gain more confidence on the
