How to enable iOS Adobe AIR app for TestFlight testing under iTunes Connect?


Recently I tried to publish my Adobe Air based app for iOS. I created the neccessary stuff like distribution certificate + provisining profile. Then I packed the app using

adt -target ipa-app-store...

I uploaded the ipa by using the Application Loader from within OSX virtual machine. I see my app in iTunes Connect account. It's possible to submit the application to the review. But before, I would like to test it.

When I go to

iTunes Connect (login)->My Apps->My App->Prerelease->Builds 

I see the build (ipa) I uploaded. I enabled the TestFlight Beta Testing for the build. I see the notification "To start testing, invite at least one tester."

TestFlight Beta testing enabled

The sacral question is how to invite testers? Because when I go to "Internal Testers" section I see this screen. I see no button "Invite". What I can do is just tick the checkbox and click "Save".

No "Invite" button available

May be I need to somehow add beta entitlement to the build. But in the provided FAQ (first pic) told that currently created provisining profiles includes this entitlement.

TestFlight entitlement FAQ

The second question is: I can only run app on registred devices that packed either in ipa-debug or ipa-ad-hoc. Will tester be able to run this build ipa (packed with ipa-app-store) after the successfuly invitation?

Thanx in advance.
