In software and application development, there is often some confusion regarding usability testing vs. user testing. Unfortunately, even experienced product owners, VPs of Technology and CIOs, and developers often confuse these two concepts.
USER TESTING
User Testing Is Need-Based: Does The User Need To Use My App?
User testing is not related to user experience (UX).
Although, of course, a great user experience should always be the goal. Still, user testing aims to test the usefulness of your app concept and whether anyone will actually use it.

Testing Help Make Your App The Best It Can Be!
A successful app can’t just be streamlined, beautiful, and easy to use.
It must also solve a need. Take Uber, for example. It is easy to use and convenient, but it also helps solve a slow, inconsistent taxi service that has plagued us for decades.
