How to use TestFlight for app build testing

In the daily development, when a project in the development process or to complete the preparation on-line, we need to carry out the real machine test, otherwise it is impossible to throw the app directly to the application, and so on-line and then download to see, this is impossible. So when it comes to real-machine testing, you'll definitely want to get a 99-American developer account, then register your device in the developer account as a test machine, download a certificate, a profile, install, run, fix. I usually do so, but for the high obsessive-compulsive disorder of me, before the project is released or not at ease using the test machine for testing, in case the test environment version of what to do, so this time I habitually will use TestFlight to test, do not ask for anything else, just peace of mind, So why use TestFlight to test to know Ann, is not afraid of the wrong version? What the hell is it?

First of all, it was released on IOS8, on Xcode 6 and iOS 8, and it was integrated into itunes Connect, where you can invite your beta test members via email.
There are two types of test methods in TestFlight, one is internal testing and the other is external testing. Functionally, both of these methods allow testers to test your app during the testing phase. But since there are internal tests and external tests, they are definitely different, so-called internal refers to the members of your development team who are involved in technology development or management (administrators, technical, legal staff) on itunes Connect. You can invite up to 25 internal members, compared to external tests that refer to testers who are not part of your team or company, and the upper limit for external testers is 2000. One thing to note here is that before you invite outside members to participate in the test, you need to go through Apple's audit, and the general audit will take place in a day or so. This limitation does not apply to internal members, meaning that if you upload your app to itunes Connect, internal members can begin internal testing without auditing.

Two: Send TestFlight test invitation
