After you have finished testing, you can either end your test, or promote your test app to an upcoming version. By promoting your app to an upcoming version, you can make finishing touches such as uploading final screenshots or metadata before going live. Tests that have ended appear on the Live App Testing (LAT) dashboard on the Test history tab.

Test history

Test new versions of published apps

You can test new versions of published apps with LAT. The first time you create a test version of a published app, binary files and metadata are copied from the live version to create the test version. If necessary, you can then modify the binary files and metadata for the test. When you set up a subsequent test, you have the option to copy the binary files and metadata from the current or upcoming version of your app, or copy from another test version of the app.

Submit your app directly from Live App Testing

If testing a single binary type, and you are satisfied with your app testing results, you can directly submit your app to be published to the Amazon Appstore. To directly submit your app
  1. Go to the Developer Console Dashboard, sign in to your account, and then select My Apps from the top navigation bar.
  2. Find your app in the list, click the menu icon , and then select Live App Testing.
  3. On the , find the test track with the version of your app you want to promote.
  4. Open the menu (three dots), and choose Promote to upcoming. You have chosen to promote this test to your upcoming version. If you have an existing upcoming version, this action will overwrite it. Do you want to continue?
You must complete any missing metadata for your app, but don’t need to re-upload your binary file. Amazon will email you when your app is live on the Amazon Appstore. For frequently asked questions about test management, see .
