# Test Devices

Test Devices lets you manage testers and their associated test entries before going live. Depending on how the tester is registered, an entry may represent a mobile app installation, a browser-based environment, or another channel-specific test record.

### Adding Test Devices for Testing

### How Test Devices Work

Test devices are added by inviting or selecting testers via external Id. Once the process is completed, the system registers a corresponding entry in the Test Devices list.

For mobile channels, these entries are linked to a specific app installation. For other environments such as web, email, or SMS, entries may represent a browser or contact point instead of a physical device.
