retesting is: u'll test only particular test cases after bug
fixation where u previously found bugs
regression testing: is to again & again test for the impact
on the whole of the modules which can be effected after bug
fixation

ReTesting: The Re-Execution of a test on same application
build with multiple test data is called ReTesting.
Regression Testing: the reexecution of a test on modified

occurance .

Answer / mohan, anna university
Retesting:Testing the same test case again and again after
the bug fixed
Regression: For the number of test case in the module to be
tested after executing the test cases for that module if
any requirement changes we need to execute the entire test
case for the particular module changed

regression testing means retesting the previous tested
application to make sure that changes are not cause any side
effects.
Retesting means restesting the previously fixed defects
check whether it is really fixed or not
we can conduct regression testing on the modified build
where as restesting is conducted on same build.

Answer / surii
Regression Testing : In this testing already tested
functionality is once again tested whenever there is a
change i.e. associated with inorder to check whether the
already existed functionality has got affected or not.
Retesting : In this testing already tested functionality is
once again tested with different sets of test data. Before
going to raise any defect it is a tester responsibility to
check whether that defect is a reproduceble or not. So test
engg. must confirm that defect wiht different sets of test data.
Retesting is performed in Regression testing but not vice versa.

Regression Testing :
Testing that is performed after making
a functional improvement or repair to the program. its
purpose is to determine if the change has regressed other
aspects of the program
Retesting :
it is testing the same functionality with
multiple set of data again and again.

Answer / shirish
Retest in done when you are not sure of the result like not
sure if you followed the given steps or just to make sure
the bug has really occurred. Retest is also done when you
want to show the bug appears on you system if the developer
denies it or show the steps to reproduce the bug.
Other condition when retest is done to see if its been fixed,
On the other hand regression is to check the bug is fixed
and no other bug has occurred while fixing that.
