Don't new developers now have to test their app on 20 devices for 14 days? and how does it work? How long per day should I test the application? what if I have a wallpaper application that can be viewed in 2 minutes? what to do in such a situation, thanks in advance for your answer!
Hey! Thanks a lot for your question! It's actually super funny (NOT). So changes about testing only affects new developers who registered their account after 13th November 2023. BUT! Dot worry about that at all. The thing is, open testing (as shown in video) it's like Beta Release. So if you do Open Testing Release, everyone can access your app already. And even if they pay for download, it doesn't matter. All user of Beta Release are testers. So if you have 14 users (which is nothing) for 20 days, you will be eligible for Production Release. But for some apps it may take a while until you decide to go to Prod, since open testing is much more convenient. You'll receive all feedback and will not damage your game with poor review at the beginning. So you can release to Prod when all bugs and concerns fixed. As for the other thing, when you app is short and so on. I'm not sure about your app specifics, but all these releases will always take time. Especially during hight season. So instead of making changes in the code, think of remote config. You can do it with Google Firebase, super easy and it has free tier. So you can retrieve data from the cloud, in your app. And so then do something with that data. Like BG image, or text, or even some styles. Let me know if any of these clear :D
well, again. short answer is yes, but. you definitely will start from Beta Release (Open Testing). and you can do it immediately. and everyone will see your game in Play Store, and everyone who will try it will be considered as a tester (because it's Beta Release), so when you will use production release, it will be for sure tested by at least 20 pers. believe me it's super small amount. you will be surprised how many people will try your first game in Beta Release. Just add description and screenshots and try.
I am sorry for asking again, but to get it right the "beta realise" mean that i dont need to bring the 20 testers because my game will be visible in the play store an people can try and be considered as testers ? That the beta realise ? How it gonna long before it end ? Thanks in advance
