Abstract :
The purpose of regression testing is to ensure that bug fixes and new functionality introduced in a new version of a software do not adversely affect the correct functionality inherited from the previous version. Efficient methods of selecting small subsets of regression test sets that can be used to ensure correct functionality are explored
