beta-testing

I have been trying for several weeks now to get the Google Alpha / Beta testing functionality on the Play Store to work with no success. As far as I can tell I have followed the process but clearly something is not working from my side. I hope someone on SO can tell me what I'm doing wrong. I have created both an Apha and Beta testing community. I have added the Beta testing community to the Beta testing section that relates to using Google+ communities to test. My Beta testing community does have members added. Although I have an Alpha testing community, none of the Alpha testing methods are

I signed up for TestFlight. Then I followed all steps in this tutorial: But Xcode throws this warning: Application failed codesign verification. The signature was invalid, contains disallowed entitlements, or it was not signed with an iPhone Distribution Certificate. (-19011) It smells like there is a lot more work to do than what they wrote in the tutorial. Is there a complete tutorial which walks through every step without stepping over anything? And do I need to add the SDK even for simple beta tests? (Edit: No, SDK is not needed!) mahboudz Start with logging into the Provisioning Portal ,

I've been using TestFlight for a while but this is the first time I'm submitting a build for beta testing directly from iTunesConnect since Apple bought TestFlight itself. I've been experiencing a weird behaviour (or maybe just the Apple's expected behaviour). I've added the user to my team (they've admin role), and I've selected them as part of the TestFlight tester in the dedicated panel. I've uploaded a build, switched the TestFlight Beta Testing on in the Build tab and selected the Internal Testers (just one in the screenshot below) I would like to receive that build. Then...nothing

Background The Android developer console has 3 tabs for publishing the app's apk file: alpha, beta and production, as shown here: as I recall from one of Google IO lectures, one cool way to check how good is your app before making a 100% scale publishing, is to allow only a percentage of the users to download the app first. I think it's called "staged rollouts" , because you can rollout the publishing in case it had too many problems to be published to all. My question What is exactly the difference between them, especially between Alpha and Beta? Only the production stage is available for

TestFlight offers over-the-air beta distribution of iOS apps (on non-jailbroken devices). How can this be done? Is this an iOS feature, or a vulnerability exploit? Nick This was possible before TestFlight rolled out a service. The technique stemmed out of the enterprise distribution mechanism. Since 4.0 devices have supported install from web. Remember - you still need to sign the beta distribution for a select set of UDIDs you can't just willy nilly install it on any device. All they are doing is taking the email the IPA step out of things. See: http://www.alexcurylo.com/blog/2010/08/27
