How do you perform regression testing of software?
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Regression testing is done to check two important aspects.
1. Whether a previously posted bug is fixed in the new
build or not.
2. Whether fixing of bug caused any problems elsewhere in
the build.
Pls correct if I am wrong.

Hi Ravi,
As much as I know your 2nd point is valid and related to
Regression Testing. But 1st point defines the process of
Retesting.
Hence in my point of view- Regression Testing is done to
ensure that any Bug Fixation, any change or any
modification made to the software application has not
brocken any existing functionality.

Regression testing is performed whenever any changes have
been made to a particular module of a software and tested
that weather changes made in this module have not effected
the functionality of other modules of the software which we
have not changed.
