What is the difference between the script in 'User Task' and 'Script Task'

I am working on an activiti workflow which requires me to post the task id to the outside website. I can post something outside by following the example here: https://github.com/jbarrez/activiti-advanced-scripting/blob/master/src/test/java/org/activiti/ExecuteScriptOnTaskCompleteBpmnParseHandler.jav

Hi,

Please read through this guide. http://www.activiti.org/userguide/#bpmnTask

But in a nutshell, a "user task" is user oriented and therefore will normally wait for a user to trigger for it to complete. However, a script task is executed by the system based on a certain condition being met.
Now the difference is seemingly noticeable in that their execution listeners different: <strong>user = "tasklistener.ScriptTaskListener"</strong> and <strong>script = "listener.ScriptExecutionListener"</strong> although this depends on the type of script task being called.

Hope this is helpful!
