Answer / ganesh
Regression and retesting are done on the current build but
for different reasons.
Regression: This is to ensure that due to the newly
introduced functionalities, the existing functionality is
not affected.
Retest: This is to ensure that the defect raised has been
fixed properly. Defect may be raised against the newly
introduced functionality or the existing functionality but
the aim is to ensure that the raised defect has been fixed
successfully.

Regression testing: is the practice of running an old test
suite after each change to the system or after each bug fix
to ensure that no new bug has been introduced due to the
change or bug fix. To check the ill effect of the software
to run test cases again on the modified viersion of the
software.
Retesting: if there would be any error at any point in the
S/W and to check that particular point of error has been
solved or not or it is workng properly or not is known as
retesting.
