The participants are given challenges (apps to be tested) during the 36-hour window that span across different time zones. These challenges include testing three applications – FireCamp, MoneyHOP and Unifarm.

The owners of these three apps gave a demo of their product. All the three product owners will also be available for the next 36 hours to clarify doubts if any of the participants have. The participants have to look into those apps and find out the bugs and report before 5 pm on Sunday. The first best three testers/groups in each of these three applications will be given a cash prize of Rs 40,000, Rs 28,000 and Rs 18,000 respectively besides goodies from ZenQ.
