I'm currently working on an game app and trying to setup achievements with GooglePlay Game Services. Now my problem is, that I have to upload the apk every time I make an change. This slows down the developing process tremendous. So my question: Can I test my changes without uploading the APK to the Test Track? I tried it, but there occurs an "Google Play not authenticated" error. Maybe I can sign my app with the GooglePlay key?

You may publish your app in Alpha/Beta states. Based from this link, by default, only production is available on the Play Store. However, you can now add an option in your Play Store page for users to opt into an open Beta program. Source.

    Yep I did that already. But the problem in my case is uploading itself. So when I try to fix a bug and test it, I've to upload it every time to an internal test track. And due my slow internet this process takes more than 30mins. So my question is: can I test features containing GooglePlay Game Services without uploading the apk and just by installing it on my android device? – Fatorice Oct 18 '18 at 09:51
