IOS TestFlight automatically generates email notification notifications

Question

We are creating an iOS application in iOS 8 using the version of Apple TestFlight (integrated with iTunes Connect, of course). However, the system regularly refuses to send “new build” emails to internal testers. To receive creation emails, I must remove users from the internal testers group and re-invite them. Even when I did this, the creation notification email (although it contains a list of the desired version of the application) does not actually cause an update in the iOS application for testing.

Note:

• I have Connect and TestFlight applications installed on my phone.
• This worked in the past with earlier versions of the application.

I found other similar stack overflow questions like this and this , but none of them seem to handle the problem "this happens to me repeatedly." In addition, most of them seem to offer "remove all internal testers, disable beta testing of the application, and then add them again", which is not a sustainable solution when we want to release several new builds per day through our continuous integration system.

Does anyone have any ideas?

ETA: I found an Apple Developer Forum topic on this. Not very helpful, but may be in the future.

Answer 1

I had the same problem: making changes to the "What to test" field on the "Create" page and saving the triggered notifications for me instantly.

When you download the new version, wait a bit (I'm waiting an hour) to complete all the processing, and then add information about what you need to test and click "save". This seems to work quite well for me.

Answer 2

Using Edit, I removed the testers and saved. It says that you cannot test without testers. I added existing testers to the new assembly and saved. When I refresh the page, he said that they were notified with the current date.
