iGATE establishes an independent verification and validation (IV&V) center of excellence (COE) at Bangalore

Software testing becomes domain specific

Gate Global Solutions recently opened a Centre of Excellence for independent verification and validation within their Whitefield campus in Bangalore. The fact here is that this company chose to talk about testing only after it realised that this service offering had grown in stature within a short time span. This announcement came when the testing facility at iGate was over 300-strong. This company is all set to add nearly $10 million to the topline during this fiscal.

For the second quarter, testing contributed 6.8% of Infy's revenues, while it already contributes 10% to Wipro's global revenues and is growing at 60-70% year-on-year. With over 5,000 people, Wipro prides itself in being able to test practically anything that is remotely connected to telecom. more.......
