DRAG DROP
You are preparing a Windows Store app that will be distributed through the Windows Store. You
install the app on a test computer that runs Windows 8. You must run functional test cases by using
the Windows App Certification Kit. You need to test the app before you deploy it to the Windows
Store. Which four actions should you perform in sequence? (To answer, move the appropriate
actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.)
Answer:
I think it should be:
1. Install Windows 8 SDK
2. Launch the Windows App Cert Kit by using a shortcut
3. Select the installed Windows Store App
4. Begin the validation process
Please refere to the following article:

0. You must install the latest version of the Windows App Certification Kit, which is included in the Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) for Windows 8.
1. From the Start menu, search Apps, find Windows Kits, and click Windows App Cert Kit.
2. From the Windows App Certification Kit, select Validate a Windows Store app.
3. The Windows App Certification Kit lists all the Windows Store apps that you have deployed on your computer.
4. Pick the Windows Store app you want to test, and then click Next.
5. The Windows App Certification Kit begins testing the app.
6. At the prompt after the test, enter the path to the folder where you want to save the test report.
7. The Windows App Certification Kit creates an HTML along with an XML report and saves it in this folder.
8. Open the report file and review the results of the test.
I think you should run appcertkit.exe instead of launching it with a shortcut. Because a shortcut is only available in Visual Studio which might not be installed on a test computer. The documentation also writes:
“Enter the following commands in this order to test your app:
appcert.exe reset
appcert.exe test -apptype windowsstoreapp -packagefullname [package full name] -reportoutputpath [report file name]”
