Distributing Android Enterprise apps for closed testing

MaaS360® supports the distribution of pre-release versions (tracks) of public and private channel Android Enterprise apps for internal testing purposes. The closed tracks provide a way to receive early feedback from users and allow you to fix issues before the apps are released to production.

Before you begin

The production version of the app must be published on Google Play.
Administrators must allow closed tracks for apps that they want to test. For more information, see the Google Developers site for distributing apps at https://support.google.com/googleplay/android-developer/answer/3131213?hl=en.

The distribution tracks that are available for an app are displayed in the Available Tracks field in the App Summary page.

Follow these steps to select a track for distribution for an Android Enterprise app:
