The war against Germany was essentially over by late April 1945.

The first atomic bomb was not even tested until 16 July 1945 - ten weeks later.

That's true, but the overall priority of the war was "Germany first". If the bombs had been ready in time, I don't think there's any question that Roosevelt would have used them against Germany.
