We need Regression Testing mainly whenever there is a requirement to change the code and we need to test whether the modified code affects the other parts of software application or not. Moreover, regression testing is needed, when a new feature is added to the software application and for defect fixing as well as performance issue fixing. However it is very expensive to re-execute all the test cases in the existing test suite, as it requires huge amount oftime and resources.

In your opinion, what strategy can be adopted to reduce the overall cost for regression testing, keeping in view that the software quality is not affected.
