Test wiki is running production version of mediawiki, so it's not useful to perform any tests of software which wasn't reviewed and isn't considered stable. It's a last place where sw goes to before it's updated on production sites. Developers can test some configuration changes and scripts to test if it wouldn't break anything.
The deployment site on labs is meant to be a place where unstable software and development version is running, so that community of wikimedia projects and tech folks can test it while it's still in development and prepare their gadgets to work with future version of software.
I hope it's more clear now

since some of them thought that deployment site is wikimedia labs, while in fact it's a project of wikimedia labs
"Backstage" projects in the meta homepage[1] might need an update to reflect the correct understanding too.
Also correct me if am wrong, TestWiki is to test *any* change while the deployment site is for testing next wmf release. Translatewiki is the place to preview/test all i18n changes. Has testwiki become redundant after having the deployment site?
