Then it should float in mid-air, or accelerate upward. So why does it
need to be tested in space?

To avoid embarrassment when it doesn't actually work as claimed!

 There’s no gravity gravy train if it gets debunked on the first day.
What’s the use of that?

Surely it is yet another standard pump and dump models for dodgy fringe science IPOs much like the LENR scams that have been around for decades.
Some genuine engineers who didn't properly understand the physics of gyroscopes have famously announced their anti gravity machines.
Most notably one Eric Laithwaite who once gave the Royal Institution Xmas Lectures in 1966 on magnetic levitation and linear motors before he quite literally went off the rails in 1974.

Great communicator with the public but not very good at physics.
