There are two parts to this. One, you need to get stack dumps back from your app. Two, you need to find testers.
I set up testing in December. ACRA is essentially being phased out (IMHO) - see https://github.com/ACRA/acra/wiki/Notice-on-Google-Form-Spreadsheet-usage. There are several tools out there for putting reporting-back capability into your app. Most of them cost money, perhaps with a trial period. I went with HockeyApp, and was happy. Finding testers is more difficult. I got best results from ElusiveStars, but see AndroidForums for my post http://androidforums.com/application-development/672692-testing-sites-services.html. I also tried the Alpha&Beta Testing forums, and TheBetaFamily, with little success.
