Coming to your experience of testing, if you have done it from bottom of heart, with passions and drive for excellence, this experience would come handy in development to better your quality of code as you might know what would the potential defects. As you have mentioned that it may not be feasible for you to start as a fresher in the development, you can think of following
With the burning desire to shift to development
1. Start learning the relevant technology in your company
2. Seek information in current company about the potential opportunities and necessary ingredients
3 Accomplish some certification/s and also make sure you have much needed ingredients
4.Declare your desire for moving into development and most likely your company would grant your wishes
Be prepared to spend time for doing this and be focused.
Hope this helps.
Cheers!
