Growing demand from end-user industries is the key factor driving market growth. Test and measurement equipment plays a crucial role in an automated control system as it regulates the movement of the overall machine. The implementation of automated machines in industrial applications is lessening the use of manually operated machines. The use of automated machines helps to automate the operation of machines and reduce expenditure on labor in the industry. In addition, the defense sector is using advanced technologies in its operations.
In addition, several market players are signing contracts with the defense sector, which will drive the growth of the market globally. Improvements in the automation process in both the process and discrete industries are creating a demand for efficient test and measurement equipment. Thus, the high growth in end-user industries and an increase in demand for automation in these industries will drive the demand for test and measurement equipment, which is expected to fuel the growth of the global test and measurement market during the forecast period.
Recent developments in test and measurement equipment are emerging trends in the test and measurement equipment market. The test and measurement industry is going through a major transformation from a hardware-based model to a software-based model, which will redefine engineering research and development processes completely. Furthermore, these new product launches also increase the competition in the market, which, in turn, will lead to innovation and differentiation.
For instance, in October 2023, Emerson Electric Co. (Emerson) officially completed its acquisition of National Instruments (NI) Corporation at an equity value of USD 8.2 billion. NI will become a new test and measurement business segment within Emerson's Software and Control Group. Emerson also indicated that the addition of NI is expected to boost its revenue growth and profits and expand its addressable markets, particularly in high-growth industrial software. Thus, such factors are expected to fuel the growth of the market during the forecast period.
Economic volatility and the highly cyclic nature of the electronics industry is a challenge that affects market growth. The sale of electronic goods and equipment is highly cyclic in nature, and their demand varies greatly with the economy, owing to which the industry may have wide fluctuations in unit demand for their products. Since the cycle of technology and seasonal demand is largely unpredictable, it becomes a challenge for many companies to adjust rapidly to changes in market conditions.
Moreover, one of the major drivers for the short lifecycle of smartphones and other electronic devices is that when a new product with novel features is launched, people are compelled to upgrade to these latest devices. But, this trend is very hard to maintain for long periods of time as technological limitations grow closer. The lack of additional new features or technological changes in devices will ultimately lead to restrained demand for electronic devices. Hence, such factors are expected to impede the growth of the market during the forecast period.
The market share growth by the wireless test equipment segment will be significant during the forecast period. There have been significant changes in the telecommunication industry over the last few years. The evolution of the telecommunication industry will be the major driver for this segment.

The wireless test equipment segment was valued at USD 10.13 billion in 2018. There will be a huge demand for such testing equipment due to the increase in smartphone demand. This wireless testing and measuring equipment is used by mobile phone manufacturers to test their phones based on various technology formats, such as LTE, global system for mobile communications (GSM), worldwide interoperability for microwave access (WiMAX), and general packet radio service (GPRS). In addition, the development of 5G technologies will create a great impact in developed regions like North America and Europe, which will drive the global market. Therefore, such factors will boost segment growth during the forecast period.
The aerospace and defense sectors are expected to grow significantly in the global test and measurement market. With the rise of national security concerns, investments in the defense sector have increased dynamically in many countries like the US, the UK, China, India, and Russia. The US is constantly updating its aircraft fleet, navy ships, and other equipment to increase the country's security. In addition, aerospace is also growing as there is a huge increase in global air traffic. Moreover, in aerospace and defense, modern development environments rely on software-defined tools to help address different challenges. In addition, with the increase in the number of airports, airline operators will also improve their fleets, which will drive the growth of the aerospace and defense segment of the global test and measurement market during the forecast period.
