Infosys Chief Executive and Managing Director, Mr. Kris Gopalakrishnan estimated global software testing business to reach $13 Billion by 2010. Out of these approximately half of the testing work will be outsourced to India - according to Mr. Gopalakrishnan. That’s great news for Indian software testers.
Mr.Gopalakrishnan was speaking in inauguration of International software testing conference in Bangalore organized by STeP-IN. The conference was aimed to discuss on various software testing opportunities and future of Indian test community.
Currently Indian software testing community is the largest in the industry and hence there is tremendous business competition in Indian corporations. This competition finally leads to quality work and this is helping India to satisfy global customers. India is having immense talent and customers are coming to India for superior work quality.
Software testers and analysts are now key part of any product team. Indian IT giants like Infosys is deriving upto 10 per cent of revenue from software testing services and significantly growing each year.
Irrespective of software testing global or Indian business I have always suggested candidates to choose your career according to your interest. One can make a good career in any field if you have interest and goal to pioneer in that field. Without interest not a single career option will work for you!!!

Career in IT-Testing is not much different from IT-Development.On an average every big MNC is giving the same Techical Round1 for both the Developers and Testing Engineers. I had a practical experience on this, where I am asked questions in C and written a test on Java for the job post of Testing Engineer.
It depends on the company and the project.Planning to settle in IT-Testing and not learning any Software Languages cannot give a fruitful long term career.
Knowing atleast:
1 Software Language
1 Operating System
1 Backend Database
1 Automation Tool
is what you need for long term IT Career :)
