I send a new version of my iPad app to AppStore. The Apple will now validate it.
But, I want to have absolute certainty that NOTHING gone wrong. I have the Archived file and want to run it.
Ok, I can build a new program and run it in the device. But I want to test the exact file that I sent.
I tried to create a .ipa file but it give-me problem with “code signed”. Run the file in simulator is a good idea. So, there are a easy way to run my new version?
You cannot install on our own device an app you build and is signed with your distribution certificate. Put another way, the build you submit to Apple cannot be directly installed by you on your device.
If you build any other way such that you can install that build on your device, it’s the same code as you would otherwise be sending to Apple in a distribution build.
I have had the same desire, actually. I have an app with a conditional build setting based on whether it’s a distribution build or not. For a distribution build, we have a production API URL, but for all other builds the URL is a development sandbox URL. So, I know how you feel! I wanted to be able to test the actual build sent to Apple to make sure it was hitting the correct production URL. I couldn’t. I had to trust. 🙂
