7. CHALLENGES FOR A TESTER
➤ Facebook is not a game module or plugin built to develop your
game. It's an independent organism. You have to find
problems not within one system but in the possible interactions
between two systems.
➤ Facebook is an important part of your user's social life. You
need to check not only playability, but also likeability.
➤ Facebook can go in different "shapes" (like mobile app or web
page or account in Settings) and it can be regulated by the
user. You have to test all the possibilities.

26. RECOMMENDATIONS
➤ You need to have at least two test users to check invites and
requests. The game app deleting/reinstalling is required.
➤ Check the same notifications both on mobile and on web. All
links should open the game app or the game page on
Facebook.
➤ Check the requests update: whenever the user accepted the
request, it should be removed from the notification list (on
Facebook or inside the game).
➤ Check if the user gets what is requested: lives, help etc.
➤ Check if Facebook popups are closed after the request/invite
was made.

27. GAME CONTINUITY IS IMPORTANT
➤ Whatever the user does, they must always be redirected
back to the game afterwards.
➤ Check the possibility to continue the game flow after
canceling any process, closing any popup, restricting any
permissions.
