In this post I am discussing on Functional testing vs Regression testing that has different purposes in the software development space

Here are key differences between functional testing and regression testing:
Sr No | Functional Testing | Regression Testing |
1 | Verifies that the software application meets functional requirements specification | Verifies that the software application remains functional after changes or updates are made for it due to defects or new requirements |
2 | Measures the software’s correctness, completeness, and adherence to user requirements | Measures the software’s stability and consistency after changes are made it |
3 | Tests multiple function features or components together in an integrated environment | Tests individual functions or components that are affected by the changes |
