Deploying .xap file to non registered windows phone device?

Question

Hello everyone I have my app successfully deployed on windows device, we already have a windows developer account. Now the client needs to test the app, how can we send him the app like ( apk files Android?)

Answer 1

One option would be to unlock your clients device as developer device and then install it via the Application Deployment tool. You would have to send him only the XAP file which you can find in your bin folder.

If this is no option you could create a beta test, here you would need the live ID of your customer. The app would run through the certification process so it isn't quite as easy as under Android.
