India's QA market has quietly split. Firms running modern automation frameworks, generative AI tooling, Selenium WebDriver, Playwright, and full digital testing pipelines are pulling ahead. Vendors that still default to manual testing, with no shift-left software testing strategies or automation-first testing mindset, are falling behind. Engineering leaders who pick the wrong vendor waste months before they realise the vendor can't handle regression testing at pace, has no mobile testing or Appium testing for mobile applications, and can't integrate with Azure DevOps pipelines.
