Google Store Beta, Increment Version Each Time?

When using the beta channel (or alpha, for that matter), does each new version of the beta APK that I upload have to have a higher version number than the previously uploaded APK? I assume that yes, it does, even though that kinda breaks my current versioning schema.

Oh well, not the first time I've had to rethink it.

Yes, of course. Beta channel uses the same mechanism to determine if update is available - so, you must bump versionCode if you wish your application to be updated.

As beta versions are able to become a stable ones "in one click" - you must numerate your beta- and release- versions in single monotonously increased sequence.
