Integrated beta testing
Beta feedback that arrives too late, for bugs you can't easily reproduce, stalls every release. Mobile App Distribution helps teams securely distribute iOS and Android beta builds to the right testers at scale, delivering the real user feedback needed to iterate on your mobile apps faster, and improving the customer experience.
THE MOST TRUSTED NAME IN TESTING AND RELEASE ASSURANCE FOR TWO DECADES AND COUNTING


Automated, secure distribution and in-platform tester management replace the manual, build-by-build handoff across iOS and Android. The right testers get the right build without chasing down who installed what, so beta cycles stop losing days.

SSO, private cloud, private storage, and a private distribution channel are built in, so security and compliance are handled without a portal to build or run. Pre-release apps stay inside your security boundary while you scale to large tester pools.

Reproduce a beta tester's reported bug on the exact real device and OS they encountered it, on the same platform. Maximize pre-production coverage and connect the customer experience to end-to-end testing.

SAUCE LABS AURA Platform
AURA operates across three pillars — author, test, analyze — spanning the full lifecycle from requirements through production monitoring. Each capability maps directly to an operational outcome.
AURA generates tests from plain-language intent, not code. Anyone can build coverage — no scripting or framework expertise required.
Tests built on user intent keep working when the UI changes. Root cause surfaces instantly, so no cycles get lost to investigation.
AURA executes test suites at scale across real & virtual devices. Functional, visual & accessibility testing all run in one platform.
Validate every release across 10,000+ real devices, alongside programmable device control and full-lifecycle coverage.
The AI agent surfaces test failures and results with full context. Engineers spend minutes on diagnosis, not hours in logs.
Real-time crash and error alerts surface production failures and issues across the SDLC — 75% fewer crashes in production.
