"Correct me if I am wrong here, Joseph, but from your perspective the term Usability should be used only with regard to Testing and Evaluation. Am I right? (I'm not challenging your perspective, only trying to determine if there is a consensual or at least majority view here.) "
That is a good question. My take is that usability as a *process* is measurement (testing and evaluation). Usability as a *concept* refers to qualities of the design. So you could make the statement that good design is highly usable - which mixes the two ideas - but, in my view point, it doesn't mix the two processes.
