Last year, Twitter acquired Crashlytics, a mobile crash reporting solution, and folded the features into the main Twitter product.

Some really sexy features also exist such as the ability to view where each tester is in the lifecycle, the ability to see the code drawing the most issues and overall tester activity.

Like other Crashlytics products, Beta will be free. Sign up for an invite today!
