Running a test in a lab environment on task of your invention may not tell you enough about how well your interface will work in a real context on real task
Field study
The goal of this user test is to test a quantifiable hypothesis about one or more interfaces. Hypothesis about can only be tested by quantitative measurements of usability, like time elapsed, number of errors, or subject ratings.
Controlled experiment
The user’s primary role is to perform the task using the interface
User
