hello satya,

i dont think that ur explanation is correct according to my view-

if that functionality works with one put...so, we give different inputs..

Retesting- is testing the same functionality with multiple inputs..

if we get a bug, after bug fixing by developers..then

Regression testing- to check whether the defect is fixed or not and also is there any side effects bye fixing this defect. This process is called regression testing.
