A structured campaign
App details, track, build under test and the agreed testing window recorded as a single campaign with a defined start and end.
Closed Testing Service for Google Play Apps
A managed closed testing service: we build and maintain the tester roster, monitor participation through the window, and hand you a campaign record you can rely on.
Managed closed testing, without the guesswork
What the service is
This is the hands-on version of the platform. Instead of your team maintaining the roster and chasing opt-ins between other work, we run the coordination with you: we structure the campaign, maintain the tester list, monitor who is actually participating, and flag problems while there is still time to act on them.
You keep the Play Console and every decision that matters: which build goes out, when the window starts, and when you apply for production access. We handle the record-keeping and the chasing.
What this is not
- It is not a purchase of testers. Paid or unpaid, every tester opts in with their own Google account and uses the app on their own device.
- It is not a guarantee of production access. Google reviews the application and decides.
- It is not a QA service. We organise testing and record findings; fixing the app remains your team's work.
What customers receive
A maintained tester roster
Every invited address, the slot it fills and its opt-in status, updated as testers respond rather than at the end.
Continuous participation monitoring
Opt-in and activity watched through the window, with silent testers surfaced while replacing them is still viable.
A consolidated feedback record
Findings logged against the build and the campaign, with device details where testers supply them.
A campaign summary
Window, participation and feedback consolidated into one record you keep alongside your release.
Evidence review before you apply
On the Scale plan, we read through the campaign record with you so the application describes the testing you actually ran.
How the engagement runs
Scope call
We confirm the app, your account type, the testing window you are targeting and how many testers you need to plan for.
Set up and roster build
The campaign is created and the tester roster is assembled from the addresses you have, with gaps identified early.
Run the window
Invitations go out, opt-ins are tracked, and participation is monitored with you kept informed of anything drifting.
Close out and report
The window is closed, the feedback record is consolidated, and you receive the campaign summary as you prepare to apply.
What we need from you
The shorter this list takes to gather, the sooner the window can start.
Before setup
- The app's Play Store listing or package name
- Your developer account type (personal or organisation)
- The build you intend to test, and its minimum Android version
- The testing window you are working towards
For the roster
- Google account addresses for the testers you already have
- Any existing tester spreadsheet, in whatever state it is in
- A named person on your side who can approve tester changes
