| | NOVEMBER 20226CIOReviewSpeed is of the essence in the software development landscape--whoever rolls out bug-free updates the fastest is the market leader. With software being at the heart of business operations across industries, companies have recognized that robust software testing is key to staying competitive and maximizing productivity. According to research by Global Market Insights Inc., the global software testing market was valued at $40bn in 2021 and is expected to reach $70bn by 2030 at a CAGR of over 6 percent. This growth can be attributed to the rising demand for automating software development processes and agile implementation for quality assurance.The growing symbiosis between DevOps and Agile frameworks and software testing practices has led to an improvement in quality assurance while also decreasing costs. This has led to faster turnaround times, easier maintenance of existing deployments, and superior quality, which helps drive ROI. At the same time, robotic process automation (RPA) has become significantly popular among companies with legacy systems, assisting them to remain competitive by automating their workflow. By replacing regression, performance, and load testing, RPA offers quality assurance professionals to channel their efforts into mentally stimulating activities such as exploratory, usability, and ad hoc testing.This edition of CIOReview delivers a bird's-eye view of the recent developments in the software testing arena and insights into how companies are aligning with these trends and adopting new ways to shape the future of software testing.We have curated thought leadership articles from industry experts, including the Chief Technology Officer at Corporate Travel Management AU/NZ and the Director of Software Services at Malouf.We also took a deep dive into the market trends to narrow down the list of companies delivering robust software testing solutions.
