What is difference between Regression and Restesting?

Answer Posted / 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.
