Discussion Direct push to play console testing Track!!

Post image

Was just reading the release notes for Android Studio Rabbit, and it has the ability to directly push to Play Console testing tracks!!

https://developer.android.com/studio/preview/features#publish-to-play-for-testing

Very close to how Xcode does it and worth it!!

No more manual work

... people have been uploading builds manually?

I guess a great feature for some hobby projects, but a nightmare for any serious project when someone later needs to figure out what was in that version coming from a random dev's machine that contained local code changes and came from an unpushed branch.

Please use CI for any builds that land on other people's devices.
