Thank you for your inputs.What bothers us with notarization requirements is that there is no way to test it.You know, testing is fail first, understand the why, then fix.We did put our product on macOS 10.14.5 beta and public release, and we though we were be able to fail there, but we never experienced a failure to demonstrate that notarization helped us to fix it in order to have it run.Implementing notarization in our context represents some kind of work, as we currently build and package our bundles with a build agent.In order to prioritize the implementation of the notarization process in our automated build workflow, I have to explain the why to my product owner and my stakeholder.Currently the why is only because Apple told us to do it, not because we are able to reproduce the failure on macOS beta software by not doing it.If I follow you clearly on the user testing workflow you are suggesting, we will surely encounter a failure.But that won't be a testing failure in the Gate
