Retesting and regression testing

Answer: Retesting ensures the original fault has been removed where as regression testing looks for unexpected side-effects.

Solution: Retesting: Retesting is also known as confirmation testing. It is performed by the tester to verify that the defect or bug has been successfully removed.
Regression Testing: Regression testing is performed after the fixing defects to ensure the change code has not affected the unchanged area of build.
Therefore, option A is correct.
