#### 3. Manually test artifacts from the Cut Release PR
The release builds can be find under the `artifact` zip, at the very bottom of the `ci` action page for each commit on this branch.
##### Release builds
The release builds can be found under the `out-{platform}` zip, at the very bottom of the `build-publish-apps` summary page for each commit on this branch.
Manually test against this [list](https://github.com/KittyCAD/modeling-app/issues/3588) across Windows, MacOS, Linux and posting results as comments in the Cut Release PR.
The other `ci` output in Cut Release PRs is `updater-test`, because we don't have a way to test this fully automated, we have a semi-automated process. Download updater-test zip file, install the app, run it, expect an updater prompt to a dummy v0.99.99, install it and check that the app comes back at that version (on both macOS and Windows).
##### Updater-test builds
The other `build-publish-apps` output in Cut Release PRs is `updater-test-{platform}`. As we don't have a way to test this fully automatically, we have a semi-automated process. For macOS, Windows, and Linux, download the corresponding updater-test artifact file, install the app, run it, expect an updater prompt to a dummy v0.255.255, install it and check that the app comes back at that version.
The only difference with these builds is that they point to a different update location on the release bucket, with this dummy v0.255.255 always available. This helps ensuring that the version we release will be able to update to the next one available.
If the prompt doesn't show up, start the app in command line to grab the electron-updater logs. This is likely an issue with the current build that needs addressing (or the updater-test location in the storage bucket).
