Searching for a service that auto updates an Android app for QA purposes

Question

When developing an app, there are lots of build versions to test.

The QA team would like the app to get updated automatically upon a new build.

As a developer, I'd like new builds to get uploaded automatically to such a service. This means I'd like such a service to support uploading new apk's via some kind of API (or script).

Anyone knows of such a service?

* Google play alpha/beta, for example, would be a nice auto-upload service candidate if they supported uploading the apk via code/script, BUT Google play alpha/beta support only manual apk upload :(

Eventually went with hockeyapp. They have a separate app that notifies the testers if a new version was uploaded and enables installing it in 1 click. — AlikElzin-kilaka, May 18 '14 at 08:21

There are couple of services available.

TestFlight (Stopping support for Android on 21/3/2014)
HockeyApp (Calling check for update which works fine) HockeyApp.net
TestFairy (Didn't use properly but works similar like TestFlight) http://testfairy.com/
