What is meant by retesting? Is it similar to smoke/sanity testing?..

Answer / shiva

No retesting is not similar to Smoke testing but it
somewhat related to Sanity testing

Retesting is nothing but you have already tested that
module and your doing it again when a bug was fixed which
you raised on that module.

For example:

You are testing an application and you found a bug in one
of the functionality, you raised it to developers for
fixing it.

they fixed the bug and send it for retesting. then you will
test only that functionality whether it is working fine or
not this is known as retesting.

Answer / lakshmanaraj bg

Retesting can't be a smoke/sanity testing. that's different.

Retesting:

Retesting simply means repeating a test case whereas when it comes to regression testing a plethora of cases open.

Retesting is testing the bugs are fixed or not which were reported.

Retesting means, testing the application with multiple inputs.

Answer / lily

When a functionality is added to the application, we need to make sure the newly added functionality does not break the application. In order to make it sure we perform a repetitive testing called regression testing. We also do regression testing after developer fix the bug.

Smoke testing: initial set of test to check whether the major functionality are working or not.

Sanity testing: It is the subset of regression testing. It is perform when we do not have enough time for testing.It is surface level testing
