IoT testing involves QA testing to ensure the performance, functionality, and security of IoT devices.
Key types of IoT testing include functional, usability, security, compatibility, performance, and network testing. Functional testing verifies software against specified requirements by testing each function, comparing inputs and outputs. IoT testing employs software and hardware tools for devices such as connected cars, smart appliances, energy meters, wearables, and healthcare devices.
The iot testing market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides iot testing market statistics, including IoT industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a iot testing market share, detailed iot testing market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the IoT industry. This iot testing market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The iot testing market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $1.21 billion in 2023 to $1.64 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 35.7%. The growth observed in the historical period can be attributed to several factors, including a diverse device ecosystem, heightened complexity of IoT solutions, adherence to industry standards and compliance regulations, heightened security concerns, and a growing demand for quality assurance in IoT implementations.
The iot testing market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $5.1 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 32.8%. Forecasted growth relies on IoT deployment scale, AI/ML integration, emphasis on edge computing, evolving connectivity standards, and adoption of continuous deployment. Key trends include edge computing testing challenges, continuous testing in DevOps, test automation growth, compliance and regulatory testing, and AI/ML integration in testing.
The expansion in the usage of IoT (Internet of Things) devices contributes to the demand for IoT testing, propelling the growth of the IoT testing market. IoT, encompassing a system of interconnected devices accessible through the internet, finds applications in a wide array of gadgets and sectors, including smartwatches, refrigerators, air conditioners, lock systems, infrastructure, and healthcare products. Thorough testing of these devices is crucial to ensure their connectivity, performance, usability, and security. Gartner estimates project that the number of IoT devices in operation will surpass 20 billion by 2026, further driving the growth of the IoT testing market.
The surge in mobile connections is anticipated to be a key driver for the expansion of the IoT testing market. Mobile connections involve the interaction between a mobile device and a cell tower, facilitating the device's access to the internet and other mobile network services. These connections play a vital role in IP testing, adapting to specific test requirements. As of February 2023, Uswitch Limited reports that there were 71.8 million mobile connections in the UK, reflecting a 3.8% increase (approximately 2.6 million) from 2021. Moreover, with 95% of the UK's 68.3 million population expected to own a smartphone by 2025, the rising number of mobile connections is poised to drive the growth of the IoT testing market.
The IoT testing market faces a hindrance in the form of the absence of uniform standards for privacy and security. This lack of standardized norms poses a barrier to the market's growth, especially concerning the storage of vast user data on IoT devices, which remains susceptible to hacking. Presently, there are no established standards to monitor devices and interfaces for security purposes. A Forbes survey revealed that 98% of respondents anticipate an increase in security issues with the rapid growth in the number of IoT devices. Furthermore, a significant incident involved the FDA recalling half a million RF-enabled pacemakers of St Jude Medical due to reported security concerns. The absence of regulatory standards not only jeopardizes user security but also restrains the adoption of IoT-enabled devices, thereby negatively impacting the IoT testing market.
The prevailing trend in the IoT testing market is the adoption of virtualization for IoT test automation. Virtualization addresses challenges encountered in traditional testing approaches, including scalability issues for connected devices, maintenance difficulties, problems in unit-level code checking, and issues related to high-performance deliverables. By simulating hardware and software, virtualization aligns dependencies with real behavior, providing accurate test results, expediting testing time, and reducing efforts. Components such as sensor, API, and service virtualization play distinct roles in this context. An illustrative example is Ericsson's automation test, which involved 879 devices such as window sensors, lights, and occupancy sensors, demonstrating Bluetooth mesh capabilities under a system-level simulator.
Leading companies in the IoT testing market are actively innovating with technologies such as Executive Risk View to enhance their market profitability. Executive Risk View is a solution designed to standardize risk scoring for both cloud and on-premises environments. Rapid7 Inc., a US-based software company, introduced Executive Risk View in July 2023 as part of its Cloud Risk Complete offering. This solution addresses the evolving risk management landscape in hybrid environments by providing security leaders with a comprehensive and contextual view. It enables them to monitor overall risk across cloud and on-premises assets, enhancing their understanding of organizational risk status and trends.
In February 2021, Cognizant, a U.S.-based information technology company, successfully acquired Magenic Technologies for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition played a crucial role in Cognizant's strategic initiative to strengthen its digital engineering capabilities and reinforce its global software product engineering network. Magenic Technologies, the acquired entity, is a U.S.-based software development company.
