Test Accounts for App Developers

UPDATE 2/23/2011: See the latest test user documentation.

You can now make officially sanctioned test accounts

Full details are posted on the wiki here:
http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php?title=Test_Accounts
but here is the short version of the important parts:

A few important things to note:

• * Test accounts won't be able to see real Facebook users and vice versa. You can make an existing account a test account, but if that account is friends with a real account, each user will disappear from the other's list of friends.
• * Our customer support team won't disable test accounts for being fake, but test accounts may be disabled for violating any other reason that a real account would be disabled.
• * Only real accounts may be listed as application owners. In other words, you may not list a test account as the developer of an app.
