Since Apple bought Testflight the process of using this service has changed. Can the process be somehow automated so that when Jenkins triggers a build, the correct signed ipa file is created? Is this possible? How? Do you need to archive it?
Currently I only know the option to archive directly with Xamarin and then extract and sign the ipa file thereof.
you could use the following build command to generate the IPA:
xbuild /p:Configuration=Release /p:Platform=iPhone /p:BuildIpa=true /p:IpaIncludeArtwork=true
