Apple to Change How It Tests Software After Buggy iOS 13 Rollout



Apple is making changes to its process for testing software following the buggy release of iOS 13, reports Bloomberg.

The change was announced by SVP Craig Federighi and lieutenants including Stacey Lysik at an internal 'kickoff' meeting with software developers. Apple's new approach will have dev teams disable unfinished or buggy features by default in daily builds. Testers will then be able to selectively enable those features via a new internal process and settings menu dubbed Flags. This should help isolate the impact of a specific feature to the system.

The new process will also help make early internal builds more usable or 'livable'. Prior to iOS 14, some teams would add untested features everyday while other teams would make weekly changes.
