is there any downside to submitting a beta version of my application to the appstore, for a version that I have no intention of releasing? main motivation is it’s a lot of code, and I want to see if it will pass code review or if there are issues.
EDIT: I want to be clear that I am not asking this because I expect apple to do any level of testing/QA or anything like that, I have been through the app review process before. what I want to determine is if my application will pass the review process so that, when I am ready to release the “real” version, there is a smaller chance of it getting rejected for something that I could potentially address now.
I hope this is appropriate for stackoverflow, as I realize it’s not strictly a programming question.
I did this, and there doesn’t appear to have been any downsides. gained some confidence that subsequent submissions were more likely to be approved, and could estimate dates a bit better because of that.
