Hi Team,
For my testing needs, I regularly upload .ipa/.apk files and testcase zip files. What is the maximum storage capacity of the Files library? Additionally, does Bitbar have an automatic file-clearing feature, or do we need to manage the file-clearing process manually?
I've used Bitbar for mobile app testing too, so I can help shed some light. Bitbar's Files library currently has a storage cap of 10GB, but it's worth double-checking with support because sometimes policies can change, especially with usage feedback from users like us. In my experience, if you reach the limit, it won't allow further uploads until you clear some space, so keeping an eye on your file sizes can help avoid hitting that ceiling unexpectedly.
As for file clearing, Bitbar doesn’t have an automatic cleanup for old files yet, so you’ll need to do it manually. A tip: if you frequently update .ipa/.apk builds, try overwriting older ones instead of uploading new files each time. I’ve found that this saves space and keeps the library organized. And if you’re archiving versions of test cases, maybe consider storing them elsewhere for backup like through Scarlet iOS app store and only uploading what you need for the current tests.
Hey there,
Great question! From my experience using Bitbar, the maximum storage capacity of the Files library can vary depending on your subscription plan. For most plans, it’s typically around 1GB, but for enterprise users, this limit might be higher. If you're not sure, you can check this under your account settings or reach out to their support team—they’re usually pretty quick to respond. 😊
As for file clearing, Bitbar doesn’t automatically delete files unless they hit the storage cap. So yeah, it’s a manual process for the most part. A good habit I’ve developed is clearing out old test files once a project is complete. It keeps things organized and ensures you never hit that limit at the worst time (speaking from experience here, haha).
On another note, if you're into testing apps, you might want to check out Scarlet for iOS. It's a third-party app store with loads of unsigned apps, including beta versions. It’s been super helpful for sideloading apps for testing without worrying about developer certificate limitations. Just make sure you’re sticking to safe sources!
