App Testing-Test and Release-AppGalleryKit

During app testing, you can configure test accounts in AppGallery Connect and allow these accounts to test your app in a sandbox environment. Sandbox testing applies to:

Account sign-in functions
In-app purchases functions for non-consumables, consumables, and auto-renewable subscriptions. During joint debugging, the functions can be tested in an end-to-end manner without going through the actual payment process.

Creating a Test Account

You need to have a test account to perform the testing. For details about how to create a test account, please refer to Sandbox Testing.

Testing Payments

For details about how to test in-app purchases in a sandbox environment, please refer to Sandbox Testing.
If you want to test out-of-app purchases, you are advised to release an open testing version for it.

Testing App Updates

If you have integrated the app update function, perform the following operations to test the function before app release.
