Extends PublisherArguments to provide Firebase-specific configuration for distributing applications to testers and testing groups. Supports advanced features like release notes, tester management, and group-based distribution.

Key capabilities:

  • Firebase App Distribution integration
  • Individual and group tester management

  binaryType: 'apk',
  releaseNotes: 'New features and bug fixes',
  groups: 'internal-qa,external-beta',
);
