Note: Do not publish/demo/promote in any way your Paris instance to anyone who has not agreed to our program's legal terms and conditions (completed when joining the TPP).
Why do we provide early access to technology partners?
- In order for partners to test their apps against the Paris release and address any bugs or changes by the time Paris goes GA and their customers start to upgrade.
- In order for partners to assess new features in Paris, and determine which should be incorporated into their store apps.
Early Access Expectations
- Partners are expected to use early access to test their apps against the Paris release.
- Partners are expected to submit their application for certification or recertification on the Paris release once the Paris certification opens. *Failure to submit for Paris certification may disqualify you from future early access.
Eligibility
In order to qualify for Paris early access you must:
- Be a current Technology Partner.
- Have an app currently certified on Orlando.
- Be requesting an upgrade to a single vendor instance.
How should partners be testing their apps in the Paris release?
You should be testing for both applications already in instances when they're upgraded and then installing the app onto a clean instance.
- Request early access for a vendor instance which already has your app installed on it.
- In the newly upgraded Paris instance run through your application test cases.
- Request a zboot (instance reset) of that instance on hi.
- Install your app onto the newly zbooted, clean Paris instance and run through your functional test cases.
Going through this process will test your app for both customers who are upgrading to Paris and customers who are installing it for the first time onto Paris.
