  1. How does regression testing help in producing quality software? Regression testing should be performed whenever new changes are being introduced in the code or the bug needs to be fixed. After the first release, if there is a requirement update or the bugs that have been reported needs to be fixed, then the developers must include the new requirement by changing the code and fixing bugs as and when required. These changes that have been made to the software must be fully tested again in order to make sure: The new requirements have been properly incorporated The existing or unchanged modules has not been affected by the modifications and changes done to the code Bugs have been fixed successfully. This means that whenever a change is being made in the software, a set of regression tests needs to be performed in order to validate the software. This process wherein the whole set of tests are executed again will in turn increase the quality of the software. Therefore the maintenance, creation and execution of a regression test suite help in improving the software’s quality. Following are a few key reasons that depict the significance of regression testing in producing quality software: Those parts of the software that may be affected by the changes made are validated Those parts of the software where changes have already occurred is validated It makes sure that software functions properly despite the changes being made The quality of the product is improved and the risk of high-level bugs is reduced. Following are the two key tips that improve the efficacy of regression testing: 1. Simple unit tests needs to be automated: Automated regression testing is considered to be a cost-effective and efficient method. Testers can also get benefitted through automated regression testing as they no longer need to perform testing on a continuous basis. They can in turn focus their efforts and expertise in solving complex test cases that may not be well-suited for test automation. 2. Key regression test cases need to be prioritized: Testing should be prioritized by taking into consideration the crucial or frequently used functions. It is a good strategy to test the most important functions and thus mitigate the risks. www.TestingXperts.com To know more about our services please email us at info@testingxperts.com Scan the QR Code USA | CANADA | UK | NETHERLANDS | INDIA | SINGAPORE | SOUTH AFRICA © 2022 TestingXperts, All Rights Reserved to contact us © www.testingxperts.com
