Yes, she was a test pilot although there were others as well.

That would be Hanna Reitsch.
I read one account where in testing they kept crashing the piloted V1 and the pilot would die. Reitsch kept yelling at them to be allowed to try. I think they let her try hoping she would crash, but she flew and landed it.
