UsabilityTestingVs.UserTesting–Whyitisimportant?
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.
USABILITY TESTING IS EXPERIENCEBASED : ARE USERS ABLE TO USE MY APP EFFECTIVELY?
Is it easy to understand how to use the app?
Should it stop and start automatically or run in the background?
Are there additional features you could add? Would they add to the experience – or detract from it?

USABILITY TESTING
User Testing And Usability 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.
