I am not sure about an Android test group, but I've included info on how some apps provide support. The ratings system and comments is not a good place for this, but it seems to be common.
I like what Swift does for support. Swift is a "lean,mean" twitter client. They have a web page and a google group. The google group provides support. http://www.swift-app.com/ My app BFF Photo is for Facebook photos, so I set up a Facebook Page for support. http://www.facebook.com/BFFPhoto Some people ask for help and feedback there, but not as much as I would like. Users resort to using the rating to ask questions. If it makes sense, I try to answer them there or request that they email, but I do not see why the user would check back. In another app I developed, DroidDrop, people started using the demo area to ask questions and make comments. That was actually helpful for feedback. Drop.io is a service to share files like notes, links, and photos. DroidDrop is an Android client for drop.io. I included a demo file sharing area in the app and included some "how-to" notes. As I said, users started using the demo area as a support forum. This is a video demo: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R8Xgww4j7hk Would it make sense to expand the drop.io ideas to be a support forum to be included in other apps? That is something I am considering.
