What is the deference between regression testing and re-testing?

Answer Posted / b.venkat reddy

hi friends
retesting: testing the previous defect fixes
if we have 3 modules in a build,we got 10 defects ,after
receving(rectifing)the build from dev team, we r going to
be tested only these defects, is called "retesting".
with these defects and before executed defects are also
tested here in regression testing (i.e.. these defects r
any cause to other problems)

regression:testing the application, by previous defects has
made any changes to other parts of the application.
