Regression Testing: If any change is made into the application, We will test those changes this is just to ensure that these changes have not made any further bugs.Testing only the changes and not the entire application.Retesting:Testing the application after the bug has fixed.

Regression testing:Regressiom testing is done when a build is given to the tester to check for wheather bug is fixed or not.This is done to the portion of the s/w where the bug has fixed.

                  Restesting is done many number of times  to ensure that other portion of the code effected or not.

regression testing: if any defect detected in test execution then it will send to development team . After fixing that bug they send modified build to test engineers. The reexecution of modified module and related modules and all the remaining tests is called Regression testing.Retesting: The reexecution of modules with different inputs is called Retesting.

V-model : This model consists of different stages of development has different stages of testingwater fall model : This is a single stage of testing. Here there are seperate people for system testing only.

Hi,

Regression Testing -

The selective retesting of a software system that has been modified to ensure that any bugs have been fixed and that no other previously working functions have failed as a result of the reparations and that newly added features have not created problems with previous versions of the software. Also referred to as verification testing, regression testing is initiated after a programmer has attempted to fix a recognized problem or has added source code to a program that may have inadvertently introduced errors. It is a quality control measure to ensure that the newly modified code still complies with its specified requirements and that unmodified code has not been affected by the maintenance activity.

Re - Testing is Test again

So Regression Testing involves retesting,

but otherwise for a specific test case i can retest if i as a tester is not satisfied with the output or I want to test again with some other values

Thanks

regression testing is the test done on the rebuild with the testcases which we have applied for the previous build.

retesting is testing the application with multiple sets of data is called retesting

this is my view is it correct

Hi

This is venkatesh.

REGRESSION TESTING: The reexecution of selected tests on modified build to ensure  bug fix work and occurances of side effects.

RETESTING:Applying test more than one time to get good result.

V MODEL:Which stands for one end is verification and another end is validation. multiple stages of developement and multiple stages of testing.

WATERFALL MODEL:Organizations follows this model when customer requirements are clear and complete.

re testing to be done to confirm the functionality of the application with multiple set of data
Regression testing to be done to  ensure the modifications are not effecting the remaining functionality of the application.

regression testing- re-execution of test cases in different releases just to make sure that changes (addition, deletion or modification of a feature, bug fix) does not introduce any bugs in unchanged feature is called as regression testing.

to elaborate this- when dev team makes any changes, fix the bug, u go ahead and test the changes, u are sure that the changes that u have made affects the other features in the application, testing the impact areas is called regression testing

retesting- testing only the changes is called as re-testing

V-model- deliverable are parallel-means testing and the development team start of their work simultaneously.
2. requirements are tested, design is tested, hence downward flow of bugs is reduced, rework reduces.
3. requirements can be changed.

water fall model- development team themselves are involved in testing, bug flow is  more, lot of rework has to be done.
requirements are not tested, design not tested.
requirements are freezed.
