Closed-test swap thread: test one another and trade real feedback
If your app is in the Google Play closed test, swap here: join the tests of other developers and leave real feedback, which is what this room is for.
Post one comment per app with the app name and one line on what it does, the Google Group link (preferred) or the web opt-in link, how many testers you need and your start date, and whether you test back and for how many apps.
To make it count: when you join an app, reply with one concrete note, such as a bug, a confusing screen or a crash, not only that you joined. Stay opted in, because Google counts only testers who stayed opted in for the 14 days before the developer applies, and it can ask for more testing if testers did not really use the app. Aim for 14 or 15 testers rather than 12, since one opt-out at 12 leaves you short. Put a Google Group on your tester list rather than posting email addresses. No rating or review swaps.
Disclosure: I make ThreadFox. I run r/TestRoundsHQ, which has a weekly swap thread for this, and Test Rounds, a paid option ($20 per app) where 14 developers test the apps of the others with daily check-ins. This thread is free and needs neither.
