play-listing fixture
A made-up photo app whose Google Play listing breaks the Metadata policy for storebound scan tests: a title longer
than 30 characters with an emoji, "#1", "best" and "free", an ALL CAPS title in a second language, another app named
in the short description, a repeated keyword and a keyword list in the full description, a "buy on our website" call
to action, and a package name that contains a well-known brand. Config and listing only.
