You can try a new tool from http://fir.im.

They have a fir cli tool written in ruby. You can install it with the following command:

sudo gem install fir-cli --no-ri --no-rdoc

Sign up an account (all free like the good old testflight) and get a token from your profile. From your command prompt run:

fir login

Provide your token.

CD into your directory where your .xcodeproj located.

fir build_ipa . 

After a while (if the build success) you will find your ipa in your ./build_ipa folder.
