having a test debug app and a released debug app side by side

When I download my app from the iStore, the latest test version installed to my phone gets over written. Does anyone know how to have two versions of the same app side by side?

On a test project, I edited the build settings so that "realease" and "debug" have different product names. This seemed to solve my problem, however when I try this same trick on my actual project, the two overwrite each other again.

Does anyone have a recommendation? I don't mind how it's done.

The bundle identifier (in your .plist file) is the differentiator. Change that, per Jason Coco's comment, and the iPhone upload no longer overwrites -- it's two different apps.

I use this trick to compare AppStore-downloaded app versus AdHoc-distributed app on the same device.

(The quick-and-dirty solution, of course, is to use two devices .... ;-)
