What are the Best Practices / strategies for Regression Testing?
1) Formulate a policy for regression testing on regular basis, if we want to achieve success in developing reliable & definitely predictable software applications. 2) Perform standard actions defined in the testing procedure & check the desired responses for correctness. Any failure of the system to comply with the set of desired responses becomes a clear indicator of system regression. 3) Ensure that the regression test must be correct & should not be out of date. 4) Do careful analysis of every defect escaping detection during the process of regression testing. This would need a careful updating of the regression test cases, so that such defects don’t give us a slip in future. 5) Generally unit test cases & integration test cases are used to build regression test cases; hence instead of having one large regression test, it is better to create a logical batch of such test cases in the form of a comprehensive test suite. This would provide flexibility of executing small unit tests in c
