How QA testing works
Pay DevNet testers to play your Roblox game and report bugs, feedback and suggestions. In beta, for Roblox games only.
QA testing gets real players into your game for a set time and gives you what they found, sorted into bugs, feedback and suggestions. It's in beta and works for Roblox games only for now.
Tests run on the DevNet Discord server: each test gets its own thread, testers claim slots there and file what they find through the DevNet bot. You can request, pay for and review a test entirely on this site.
The steps of a test
- You request a test. Paste your game link, say what to test, and choose the reward per tester, how many testers, how long and when. See Request a test.
- You fund it from your QA wallet, in Robux or US dollars. The total is held, not spent.
- DevNet staff review it. They check the game is appropriate and can actually be tested. If they turn it down, the full amount returns to your wallet.
- The test opens in a Discord thread at the start time. Testers claim slots, first come first served.
- Testers play and file items for the length of the test.
- You review for up to 24 hours: mark bugs fixed or dismissed, and flag any tester whose feedback wasn't useful.
- Testers are paid and anything that wasn't earned returns to your wallet. See Test games and get paid.
What it costs
- Rewards: what you choose per tester, times the number of testers. R$ 100 to R$ 1,000 or $1 to $10 per tester, for 3 to 25 testers.
- Service fee: 10% of the rewards, at least R$ 50 or $0.50.
- Paying in Robux: Roblox keeps 30% of every in-game purchase, so only 70% of what you spend reaches your wallet. DevNet shows both numbers before you pay.
You only pay for testers who earn the reward. Rewards for slots nobody claimed, or for testers who didn't qualify, come back to your wallet with their share of the fee.
