Test Krewe
From Guild Wars Wiki
The Test Krewe is a group of volunteering players selected by ArenaNet to have direct access to the Guild Wars test servers and to interact directly with the game developers, in order to help the Live Team test incoming updates for the game. ANet does not announce the number of testers, however, players are allowed to state if they are part of the krewe. Further details are limited due to a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) signed by all members of the Live Test Krewe.
