Others replied already, but I'll chime in too.

There's "testing"

* manual during development

* automated testing

And there's "testing"

* smoke checking processes in production

In most cases, the "test in production" is more of a "validation" that end to end experience works. And there probably shouldn't really be much of a way to distinguish between a "test" in production and a "validation" of the purchase process.
