私人测试版Chrome扩展程序 [英] Private beta testing a Chrome extension

问题描述

是否有一种方法可以在一小群用户中对网上应用店中的Chrome扩展程序进行测试？

在扩展到每个人之前，我想这样做在我的等待名单上，但我不想发送带有安装说明的文件，特别是考虑到Google收紧了不是从网上商店下载的扩展名。

如果可以的话，能够慢慢推出（àla Mailbox）也是非常有用的。

解决方案

在Chrome网上应用店发布有3个>该扩展程序将列入搜索和图库中，每个人都可以安装和使用。

未列出。该扩展程序不会列入搜索和图库中，但所有人直接链接即可安装。

（仅适用于Google Apps域）仅在[example.com]上拥有帐户的用户。允许publi只要您管理Google Apps域名，即可私下提供商品。

私人。该商品仅适用于选定的Google帐户列表， Google集团。请注意，这适用于可信测试人员。

也就是说，您最有可能有两个选项：

1. 拥有一组可用于您的应用的帐户。 CWS允许指定一个明确而简短的列表，或与您管理的Google Group链接。

使用未列出并向所有人发送链接。仅当您不在乎链接是否泄漏时才使用：您将无法远程终止任何安装。

Is there a way of beta testing a Chrome extension in the Web Store among a small group of users?

I'd like to do this before scaling to everyone on my waiting list, but I don't want to have to send round the file with installation instructions, especially given that Google is tightening up on extensions that aren't downloaded from the Web Store.

It'd also be useful to be able to slowly roll it out (à la Mailbox) if that's at all possible.

解决方案

Publishing on Chrome Web Store has 3 (well, 4) options:

• Public. The extension will be listed in search and gallery, everyone can install and use.
• Unlisted. The extension will not be listed in search and gallery, but everyone with a direct link can install.
• (Google Apps domains only) People with accounts on [example.com] only. This allows to publish items privately, as long as you administer a Google Apps domain.
• Private. The item will only be available to a selected list of Google accounts, or a Google Group. Note that this is aptly aliased as "Trusted Testers".

That said, you most probably have 2 options:

1. Have a restricted set of accounts that can use your app. CWS allows to either specify an explicit but short list, or to link with a Google Group you administer.

2. Use "unlisted" and send everyone the link. Use only if you don't care if the link leaks: you won't be able to remotely kill any install.
