Beta tester means the person who is testing a particular application which is in beta stage. Beta stage means the application/program which is not yet complete and is under development.

A Beta version of a program is th stage just before it's release. It works and is complete, but still needs to be used in real situations to find all the bugs.
A Beta Tester tries out these pre-release versions of software, and reports bugs. Beta Testers usually get the software for free in trade.

A 'beta tester' is someone who will try out some new software and rate it's performance before it is officially released. Some folks like to do this, but using potentially 'buggy' software never appealed to me.

beta is when a product is being released and needs to make sure there are no mistakes in the program so they offer an early beta download so they can get many people try it and email them if they occur any problems.
I'm using the beta of the new FireFox.

These are people that "test" products, like video games to check for any "bugs" in the game and even to see what it takes to crash the game. sounds fun huh?
