I dunno if this kind of thing would be a good test of the mechanics/features, but I feel like some good ol' rng could help alleviate any worries.

Have the bosses in random places on the PTR instead of their designated nodes and give those bosses randomized new abilities (if there are any new ones). The people wouldn't know which nodes to level up before the new patch, they wouldn't know which boss has which abilities - all while still testing if the overall boss AI works fine and whether the abilities work properly.

In other words, separate the core of the content from the final version of the content. If that's possible and if it would achieve the goals set for the test itself.
