Software regression testing
Why go for application regression testing?
By introducing regression testing at the initial SDLC stages, you can:
- Detect bugs early on to save time and costs on fixing them and get feedback right away
- Ensure flawless performance of business-critical features
- Reduce pre-release testing time to accelerate time to market
- Get the results as fast as possible with automated testing
- Reap the benefits of a continuous integration setup to automate the regression test run for each build

Mix and match methods for sufficient test coverage
Our QA specialists are proficient in combining different methods for regression testing, introducing test automation, and applying the requirement traceability matrix, risk-based approach, and code changes review to achieve better results.
20+ years of testing track record
Our long-running experience in providing regression testing services allows us to view your project from multiple perspectives, taking what works best out of our extensive toolsets and skills.
All the tech included
Whether it’s a Salesforce business application, a Java mobile app, a Python-based API, or multi–app solutions, we have required knowledge for its regression testing, ensuring that no changes in code disrupt existing functionality.
Why we prefer automated regression testing services
Continuous testing
To be more effective and ensure the created solution’s stability, regression tests need to be executed throughout the development process. Automated regression testing is superior to manual methods in this regard.
Parallel execution
Automated regression tests running in the background can help get feedback on both basic bug fixes and more complex amendments, such as database updates. This involves continuously verifying that the software is working as expected across critical paths. Parallel test execution reduces the time to results from several days to a couple of hours.
Efficiency
Our test automation frameworks allow for shorter regression software testing cycles, freeing up testers’ time to dive into non-standard cases.

Frequently asked questions
Regression testing helps validate that recent code changes haven’t disrupted existing functionality. It includes verifying bug fixes, ensuring system stability, and validating software’s performance across web, mobile, and desktop platforms. Both manual and automated methods can be used depending on the project scope.
Regression testing needs to be performed throughout the software development lifecycle. It can be run continuously or executed as a one-time activity after large-scale code changes. Compared to manual regression testing, automated testing enables quick feedback during every build.
The process includes four steps: discovering business goals and testing scope, estimating testing volume, executing tests using appropriate tools, and delivering detailed documentation and improvement recommendations.
