Can someone tell where to find docs/code on how to use the keyboard. In the game I working on, the user needs to interact with the keyboard(using arrow/directional keys).

It'd be MUCH easier to use arrow keys to test playability etc before going through the (albeit it minimal) hassle of building and loading an app to the device.

Testing platformer games, or anything with more than one button in simulator is pretty much impossible due to this, and disruptive to the otherwise fantastic Corona workflow.

At present you can't, no, but we're aware it is a requested feature :)

Are there any updates on this feature?

Not at this time, you can see priority upcoming features on the roadmap :)
