How Does Apple Test Flight Work?

 External testers

the external testers can be anyone from a testing team or a known person. As they can be invited by email or open-link. For this type of testing, the app must follow certain guidelines and it must get approval from the app store.

Test information & testing

 For the external testers, the developer provides some guideline which are been provided on the app test information page. It is optional for internal testers. Testing of the app can be done up to 90 days from the day of uploading the build. Every tester can see the total day remaining and if a new build is available test flights intimate the testers. During the testing period, the in-App purchase is made free. With iOS14 Beta the testers can able to test the beta App clip.

Feedback mechanism

The testers can send the developer feedback and can also make some suggestions for improvement. The feedback is received by developers as well as the apple test flight service. The testes can take a screenshot and send it directly to the developer without leaving the app and the developer can receive it once it is enabled. For the earlier iOS 12.4 and ago the testers need to send it by a composed email to the developer.

After testing

 Once the testing period ends up the test build on the testers’ device can’t be opened. And the in-app purchase is made disable.
