Understanding Live App Testing for Vega

With Amazon’s Live App Testing (LAT) service, you can distribute an app that you intend to publish to the Amazon Appstore to a pre-defined set of testers before going live. To make sure your app is working as expected, testers can sample the full suite of Amazon services against Amazon’s production environment. Examples of features you can test include the following APIs and services:

In-App Purchasing (IAP)
Facebook integration and connectivity
Amazon Device Messaging

Before you publish your app, you can use LAT to gather feedback, . Your tests show you exactly what your customers would see if the app were live in the Amazon Appstore.

High-level description of the LAT workflow:

Submit an app package of your app to LAT. You can test additional packages of your app (up to five) in parallel by creating new tests.
Have your group of testers test your app using LAT:
1. Add your testers to tester groups. If you create multiple LAT tests for an app, you’ll add the tester groups separately for each live app test.
2. For each test you create, have the testers from each tester group download the associated app package and start testing.
Evaluate your tester feedback.
Based on the test results and feedback, make any changes to your app. Test the changes by adding an upcoming version to the existing live app test.
When you’re satisfied with your test results, you can choose to promote a version from your active tests to be published live on the Amazon Appstore.
