Update:
As you may remember some months back we had announced …in this thread… plans to start a testing team comprising of volunteer users.
We are happy of announce that as of this week we have started testing of the /e/ build with a group of volunteer testers.
Previously the testing was done by the development team only.
At present we have a small team of about 10 users and support team members who test the build and share their feedback.
- The build is a test build with fixes from Sprint 1.
- Based on the all - clear from this team the build will go out as a dev build and be released to all users.
- Bugs that do not clear this testing are back with the developers
Thanks to the users who volunteered with the testing.
Since this is an ongoing process …If you are interested in volunteering as a tester please note the following:
- Testing is of officially supported smartphone builds only
…which means no unofficial or test builds will be tested. - Volunteer testers will have to download the test build and manually flash it on their device to run the test
- the details of issues to be tested is shared with the testing team. For now we do not have OTA testing builds.
- Apply only if you have the official builds on your phone and preferably you are not using the phone as your primary phone.
