I object 
I don't know what you intended for this round of testing but I only ask for testers if there is something to test. In general I make my DMOD like this:

- Make a first version (an alpha version)
- Polish it and try to squash all the bugs I can find
- Send this polished version (beta version) up to the testers
- Using their criticisms improve the parts I missed
- Release the final version.

Now I'm not saying this is the only way to do things, you can have testers for an earlier version too. But why on earth would you have a tester play through something that clearly has nothing to test? If I were to do that nobody would be there to test my final version I'm sure...
