Govind Muthukrishnan, Senior Vice President and Testing Global Service Line Leader at Capgemini Group, said: "We are delighted to be consecutively recognized as a Leader for the 2nd year in a row in Gartner’s Magic Quadrant for Application Testing Services, Worldwide for our transformation approach, global reach and delivery capabilities.

The quantitative criteria outlined by Gartner included:-

  • Full-service providers of application-related services are required to have $400 million in annual application testing service revenue (measured over 2014 — not the provider's fiscal year).
  • Providers must have regional-based testing delivery capabilities in at least two worldwide regions: North America (U.S. and Canada), Latin America, EMEA, and Asia/Pacific and Japan.
