About Regression Testing
Regression
testing is a software testing practice that ensures an application
still functions as expected after any code changes, updates, or
improvements.
Regression testing is responsible for the overall
stability and functionality of the existing features. Whenever a new
modification is added to the code, regression testing is applied to
guarantee that after each update, the system stays sustainable under
continuous improvements.
Why is Regression Testing important?
The need for Regression Testing mainly arises whenever there is the requirement
to change the code and we need to test whether the modified code affects
the other part of the software application or not. Moreover, regression
testing is needed, when a new feature is added to the software
application and for defect fixing as well as performance issue fixing.
