Software Testing Tenders and Contracts

Search live portals for software testing, QA and test automation tenders, or move earlier by tracking the buyers who publish them. On Stotles you can filter by buyer, stage and CPV code, and read the documents behind a live procurement before it closes.

Public sector buyers use several labels for the same work: QA testing, quality assurance testing, test automation, systems testing and user acceptance testing (UAT) all turn up as contract titles. The common thread is checking software before or after it goes live, whether that is scripting automated regression tests, running UAT cycles with end users, or signing off a new system. Penetration testing and other security testing sit in a separate category with its own buyer intent, so it is not folded into this page.

Software testing sits under a dedicated software testing code, alongside a system software acceptance testing consultancy code and a system quality assurance assessment and review code. Broader codes for IT services and software consultancy show up regularly too.

Often. G-Cloud and the DDaT (Digital, Data and Technology) frameworks are the common route, and QA and test automation call-offs against them make up a large share of the notices. That is also why so few notices sit at the open stage at any one time: a call-off can be placed and awarded quickly once the framework relationship exists.

A large share of what matches this filter is already awarded, with a smaller pool at pre-tender or early market-engagement stage, and the rest open or closed for bids. New notices are added continuously as buyers publish, so return to this page rather than relying on a single search.
