Still a week ago, if you wanted to test a facbook application you had to install it and let it access to personal information.

Now… you still have to let the application access to personal information but, after a few tests, if you don’t like the application you don’t need to edit your profile settings to remove it anymore. Indeed, facebook developers have added a “require_login” option.

Here is what Pete Bratach said on the 3 th of May:

“To reduce user friction when encountering a new application, we’re streamlining the way users authorize applications when they first encounter them. We’re doing this by recommending that you use require_login instead of require_add when the user first interacts with your application.
