When I perform an ether-transfer transaction on testnet, some of my ether gets deducted as transfer fees.

But as its not a real ether and has 0 value, how does it profit the miners who mine that transaction?

If they can get real ether as reward by mining MainNet-Transactions then why do they waste their time and hardware to mine testnet transactions?

Please forgive me, I might be missing a major point...
