Umm yes?
I tested Warcraft frozen throne.
A little for WOW.
I test for small companies that release little products.
And i constantly beta test for my own company.

Is there a question with this question?

I beta tested the Symantec C++ compiler back in 1995. Got a free copy of the release version as payment.

Yep, officially and unofficially. I have beta-tested releases and applications that my previous employers and contract partners have released, and have unofficially tested many apps, patches, service packs, and the like for my own use. I'm a freeware junkie, so I run a lot of beta software and visit many beta websites.
