Abstract: The innovation in the field of software engineering and allied technologies has lined the way in software development life cycle through different strategies and approaches. Further, it guides the software testing process to improve upon by adopting the same such that, the effectiveness and efficiency of software testing can be enhanced to a greater level. The emergence of cloud computing has led to many changes in the way IT industry are operating in regard to software testing. Since software testing plays a major role in producing good and outstanding software products with enhanced customer satisfaction index (CSI), it is essential to focus more on defects related factors. Despite several testing techniques, it is proven that regression testing is most popular in all software industries. Hence, this research is contributing towards identifying, measuring and analysing influential factors of regression testing with respect to defects. This paper focuses on empirical investigation through a case study comprising of two testing environments with projects taken from two different domains in order to analyse the factors influences/significant effectiveness of testing. Investigation indicates that testing applications in cloud has added benefit of detecting defects of high severity in addition to other proven benefits of cloud.
