[android-developers] Re: LVL "LICENSED" Test Respone
I think the thing to do is simply not use the google extras. Why do you need them? All you really need to know is whether an application is licensed or not licensed. Google may say that the verification time of the licensing is 2 days say (I have no idea what the normal response would be), but why use their values? The same goes with retries, just use your own values then it doesn't matter whether google sends extras or not.

It's bizzare, they have designed a system for testing that cannot be used to accurately test an application's response! The only solution is to publish an app that doesn't work and then fix it! What are they thinking? ARE they thinking? On Nov 5, 11:03 am, String wrote: > It's been disclosed on this forum before that test responses aren't > cached.

[android-developers] Re: LVL "LICENSED" Test Respone
It's been disclosed on this forum before that test responses aren't cached. I haven't looked into how that's implemented, but leaving those extras blank would probably do it. So I suspect this is by design. An obvious implication is that the test responses aren't an accurate simulation of how your LVL implementation will work for real users; unfortunate, but true. The usual advice is to set up another Google account for testing, purchase your app from it (or not, depending on what you're trying to test), and work with that. Seems kludgey, but AFAIK that's the only way.

I ran into the same thing last night although I didn't have time to really delve deep into the problem so I am not sure whether it is my code or a market problem.

Nobody on this form who implemented LVL and could answer this simple question?
