Regression testing is a techniques whci is used to verify whether all old features, new implementation and bug fixes are working fine on the new release of any application and there is no side effect to new release due to code changed. while retesting is a technique in which tester only have to execute old test cases to verify existing functionalities are working fine. In retesting, you don't have to test the new feature implementations.

Retesting:-

You find one defect , in that defect u put in the Defect Trac. after fix that defect u tested in that defect fixed or not. ( once same test case u re-tested).

Regression testing:- Retesting of an application when new functionality is added to the system ,

In this regresion testing u execute in the future also( new versions also)

Retesting is testing the functionality of application more than once.

Regression testing is testing conducted to see if the changes or fixes does not cause problems in the furthur functionality of the code .

Eg: for one particular application  develover has written code for OK button and Submit button, initaly tester will test OK button find out bugs from that and report to developer, meanwhile developer is busy writing code for Submit button, defects or bugs reported here,in bulid one for Ok buttonwill be fixed by developerwhile in the process he is writing source code, there are chances that he may add more defects in the forthcoming build so it is neccesary to retest the Ok button to test the functioanlity again (changes or fixes does not cause problem in the furthur code)this is regression testing.

The main difference is, Reexecution of the same build is "RETESTING" Reexecution of the modified Build is "REGRESSION TESTING"

Hi,

   Retesting :In Retesting we are going to check

              weather the bug is fixed or not...

  Regressoin testing:Regression testing means after getting confirmation

  the bug is fixed we are going to check the fixation is going to create any problems in the application or not.(that means due to the fixation of the bug we got any side efforts in the application or not)

Regards,

Satya
