retesting
Second examination attempt
Retesting is testing again, typically after an initial failure or to verify previous results.
Students who fail an exam may have the opportunity for retesting.
In software development, retesting confirms that a bug fix actually works: We'll need retesting before the release.
The noun refers to such repeated tests: The retesting showed improved scores.
