The Party hat.

Beta testing is when people sign up to help fix the bugs in the beta version of Club Penguin and report them so Club Penguin could fix them. People who signed up are called Beta Testers, also known as betas. When Club Penguin was publicly launched, the team held a party to thank Beta Testers, in which the yellow and pink party hat was given out in the Town. Beta testers usually wear this hat as it shows that they are a beta tester. Most beta testers have names like "fano" or "JaMeS" that have a mixture of lowercase and uppercase letters. Although, when Club Penguin launched the CPIP test server, the names were changed so "fano" is now "Fano" and "JaMeS" is now "James". However, on August 4th, 2009, Most beta testers' names have been restored, turning "Fano" into "fano", or "James" into "JaMeS". Today, these penguins are considered very rare, as most have quit because they have either gotten too old or just got bored. Betas most likely have the Shamrock Pin because it was the first pin released on Club Penguin.

-==Trivia==
-*[[Penguins]] who participated in the [[Club Penguin Improvement Project]] testing are sometimes thought to be betas, but are not.
-*When [[penguins]] share accounts, one [[penguin]] sometimes tricks the other by telling them they have a beta hat, but they actually mean the [[Red Construction Hat]].
-*Beta Testers are easily spotted on servers like Sleet and Mammoth. Many Beta watchers go there, and many [[rare]] [[penguin]]s go there, too.
-*The reason why Beta Testers are [[rare]] is because they are not seen very often - usually caused by them quitting.
-*Most Beta Testers have no numbers in their [[Penguin]] name, since newer penguins usually have their desired user name already chosen, and therefore extend it with numbers to make it unique.
-*Within an hour of the Beta being launched, the [[servers]] crashed and had to be reset. This occurred many more times in the future.
-*After the Beta ended, testers were rewarded by receiving 1,000 [[coin]]s, one month of paid membership, and also got to keep the [[Party Hat (item)|Party Hat]].
-*There are two new clothing items in the [[Treasure Book|Series 6 Treasure Book]] that are name-wise and colour-wise related to Beta testing. They are called the [[Beta Hat T-Shirt]] and [[Beta Grid Sweater]]. Having these in possession does not mean you are a real beta tester, however many claim they are.
-*If you go to the first year anniversary yearbook, on the first page there are penguins about to hold up a sign that say beta but it only says bet.
-*If you go to the 2008 and 2009 yearbook, on the front cover, penguins are wearing hats that are all anniversary hats and beta hats.
-*Rumors are going around saying moderators can become betas (even if they did not join in beta days). This has been proved by [[Gizmo]].
