The application testing services market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $41.04 billion in 2023 to $45.21 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.1%. Historical growth can be attributed to the demands for quality assurance (QA), the increasing complexity of software applications, the adoption of agile and DevOps practices, globalization and outsourcing trends, and the necessity to comply with regulatory standards.
The application testing services market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $72.72 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.6%. Forecasted growth is due to shift-left testing, continuous testing in DevOps, microservices, and security testing in DevSecOps. Major trends include test automation, AI integration, shift-right testing, performance engineering, and mobile app testing advancements.
The projected surge in the application testing services market is propelled by the ongoing digital transformation within businesses. This transformation entails the comprehensive integration of digital technology across diverse operational domains, aiming to enhance efficiency, value, and innovation within organizations. Notably, such digital initiatives streamline application testing processes by delivering swifter feedback loops and reducing the time required to launch products and services. For instance, as of November 2023, the National Retail Association reported that about 11% of businesses have fully embraced digital strategies. This trend presents both opportunities and challenges for SMEs aiming to bolster their online presence. As businesses increasingly adopt digital transformations, the application testing services market is experiencing robust growth.
The anticipated surge in the application testing services market is attributed to the escalating adoption of the Internet of Things (IoT) in the coming forecast period. IoT signifies a network of interconnected devices that communicate and share data over the internet, facilitating the exchange and utilization of information. Within this framework, application testing services play a crucial role in ensuring the functionality, security, and interoperability of various interconnected devices and systems. Notably, as of September 2022, an Ericsson report revealed a global tally of 13.2 billion IoT connections, projected to surge by 18% to 34.7 billion connections by 2028. This steep rise reflects the increased deployment of autonomous systems and connected devices, driving the expansion of the application testing services market.
Strategic partnerships are increasingly becoming a prominent trend within the application testing services market. Numerous companies in this sector are opting for partnerships to fortify their market standing. An illustrative example is the collaboration between BT Group PLC, a UK-based telecommunications firm, and MTN Group Limited, a South African telecommunications entity. This partnership aims to deliver managed connectivity, cloud security, and voice services to MTN Business clients, marking a notable expansion for BT into new international territories. Although presented as an initiative under MTN's corporate umbrella, it seems that the South African division is spearheading this endeavor.
Major players within the application testing services market are directing their efforts toward innovative solutions such as mobile testing services, aimed at enriching software quality and user experiences. Mobile testing services encompass the comprehensive evaluation and validation of mobile applications, spanning functionality, performance, and usability across diverse platforms and devices. For instance, Autify Inc., a US-based provider of AI-driven software testing automation, introduced Autify for Mobile in October 2021. This no-code web application simplifies the creation, execution, and automation of software test scenarios, even without coding proficiency. Powered by AI, it dynamically adapts test scenarios by detecting alterations in source code and UI, streamlining the testing process without the need for manual script adjustments post new releases.
In October 2021, Qualitest, a UK-based firm specializing in comprehensive software testing solutions, completed the acquisition of Telexiom GmbH for a total transaction value of USD 41.73 billion. This strategic move is anticipated to bolster Qualitest's proficiency in digital engineering and cybersecurity while also extending its geographical footprint into the DACH market. Telexiom GmbH, based in Germany, specializes in offering managed software testing services.
