Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

Regression testing is the re-running of functional and non-functional tests to ensure that previously developed and tested software still performs as expected after a change1It does not involve retesting of a fixed defect, testing of new functionality, or applying only to functional testing.Tests that are used for regression testing should be repeatable, because they are used to verify the stability of the software after each change2Reference= ISTQB Certified Tester Foundation Level (CTFL) v4.0 Syllabus, Chapter 4, Section 4.2.2, Page 291; ISTQB Glossary of Testing Terms v4.0, Page 292

Wait, are you saying tests don't have to be repeatable? That sounds off.

I feel like I remember regression testing being more about retesting fixed defects, so I think I might lean towards option A.

I practiced a question similar to this, and I think I recall that I and II are correct, but I'm not completely confident about III.

I'm a bit unsure about IV; I thought regression testing could apply to both functional and non-functional testing.

I remember regression testing is about ensuring that new changes haven't broken existing functionality, so I think II is definitely part of it.

I'm pretty confident I know the answer to this one. Regression testing is all about making sure existing features still work after changes, so the correct answer has to be one of the options that captures that.

Okay, I've got a strategy here. Regression testing is about retesting existing functionality, so I'll focus on the options that mention that.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused by the wording of the statements. I'll need to re-read them a few times to make sure I understand the differences between them.

I'm pretty sure the firewall reboot is not required, that's just for the license activation. Gotta remember those two key steps.
