Android has been an important area for Facebook because it powers a majority of the world's smartphones. "We're inviting this group of people to join the dog-fooding family," Mike Shaver, director of engineering for mobile, said, using the term that describes when a company requires its employees to use a specific product in order to make it better. The social network launched a beta testing program at a press event on Thursday, using Google Play's new beta partnership program, a process where users sign up - through Google+, of course - to test for bugs and crashes. Facebook is lifting up its hood for Android users who are willing to help it test, and ultimately approve, its Android apps.
