As a Qualified Security Assessor Company (QSAC) we often get asked by our clients if they are able to fulfil their ongoing PCI penetration testing requirements in-house. The short answer is it depends.
PCI DSS requirement 11.3 covers an organisations requirement for conducting an annual internal and external penetration test - including application tests. This differs from PCI DSS requirement 11.2 which addresses an organisations requirement for running quarterly internal and external network vulnerability scans. The latter must be run by an Approved Scanning Vendor (ASV). Both requirements must be performed at the mandated intervals or when significant changes take place in the network, infrastructure and applications (including upgrades).
There are key differences in the two requirements from a technical perspective as well.

The penetration testing is more manual and comprehensive than the vulnerability scans, and also must include application layer tests.
Applying the PCI SSC guidance, the annual penetration test does not strictly need to be conducted by a party external to your organisation. However, the testing does need to be performed by a suitably qualified party who are organisationally separate from the management of the systems

Both the penetration testing methodologies (black box/white box and types of tests) and results should be documented, and the scope must include all systems and

Other organisations prefer to outsource these requirements to an organisation which is totally focused on the delivery of these expert services and is able to deliver comprehensive independent results. At the end of the day conducting penetration testing should not just be about meeting your compliance obligations - it should lead to an improved security posture, and many believe this is best addressed by engaging a specialist firm.
