Popularity of DevOps: DevOps has become one of the most used solutions for software development. According to a survey by Statista, Only nine percent of the respondents had not adopted or had no plans to embrace DevOps for software development.

Automation Tools: The software testing process has a large number of repetitive and mundane tasks, and the manual process of testing was proving to be a waste of resources for organizations. Automation tools can automate the repetitive task in real-time with more efficiency. These tools have become vital for the continuous testing and delivery required by agile teams. Automation tools allow testers to create more test cases instead of executing them.
Internet of Things (IoT): IoT devices are growing at a rapid pace. These devices depend on software to function efficiently. The ubiquity of IoT devices require the communication protocols and operating systems testers to test all the possible combinations for efficient functioning of the IoT network.
Big Data Testing: The biggest issue with big data analytics is verifying that the data has been successfully processed. The verification process is not time-efficient, and can hours depending on the quantity of data. There is a massive demand by Big data analytics companies for test platforms that can replicate the behavior of individual data layers in the operating system.
