Why does a defendant not have to testify?

WHAT court case does he not want to testify in - his own? He has that right if he wishes to exercise it. If you are referring to some other case in which he may not want to testify - the court has the power to compel his attendance and be called as a witness. If he takes the stand and refuses to answer questions or testify, the jury can then draw their own conclusion from his refusal, and use that, or not, in their deliberations.
