Certification

All public apps must meet Roku's certification criteria to be published to the Roku Streaming Store. This ensures that all apps in the Roku Streaming Store have properly integrated required platform features in order to provide viewers a consistent user experience.

App testing

Roku provides a suite of tools and tests to help developers check whether their app complies with the certification criteria:

• Static Analysis tool: Checks the app's code for certification-related errors.
• App Behavior Analysis tool: Verifies that the app meets performance and deep linking requirements. This tool may be used for SVOD, AVOD, and free apps.
• App pre-certification tests: Provides a list of tests that apps can run during development to prepare for Roku's app certification process.

Developers are expected to use the Static Analysis and App Behavior Analysis tool tools, the list of pre-certification tests, and the certification criteria to guide internal quality assurance testing before submitting an app to Roku for review and publishing.
