Update application to AppStore listed app from Tes

Question

Apple allows External testers to beta test builds through TestFlight for 30 days after which the build will expire. My questions are the following:

1) Will the application stop working after 30 days ? or Will TestFlight just make the build inactive after 30 days ?

2) If the main build submitted App Store gets approved and if we send a link to all the external testers. Can they be able to just update the app or do they need to uninstall the beta built app and install fresh ?

Thanks!
