It depends on what you want to test. If you run update-manager, it will
automatically update you to the Beta 1 packages once they are out. You
can report bugs against Beta 1 packages just like you could pre-beta.
However, in order to do ISO testing, we need everyone to download and
test the actual Beta 1 CD images. The focus of this testing is on the
install and live CD aspects of the distibution more than on the
individual packages.
Both are quite useful, but Jean-Baptiste was definitely trying to get
people to download the ISOs and test them specifically. :)

I currently have alpha 3 running, will it upgrade automatically to the
beta 1 version? Or would it be better to reinstall using the beta 1
iso?

Hi everyone!
Oneiric Beta 1 is due this week and as usual we'll be asking everyone on the QA
team to participate in the image testing to ensure we have good test coverage.
The procedures for testing ISO images and reporting results are explained on
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/ISO/Procedures
You can start syncing your ISOs. First images have been posted to the ISO
tracker and more images will be posted once they finished building.
Test results will be tracked on http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/
You may have accounts on the tracker from last time. Please register if you are
new to this.
Please let us know if you have any questions.
We will coordinate testing in #ubuntu-testing on freenode. Please, go there
often to see what others are testing or what needs to be tested.
Thank you very much for your help and happy testing!
