About Globalization Testing

About Globalization Testing illustration

Launching a product globally requires more than just language translation; it demands a deep understanding of different cultures and technical formats. Our Globalization Testing service ensures your application is ready for an international audience. We focus on two key areas: Internationalization (I18n), where we test your application's core design to ensure it can handle various languages and regional formats without breaking. Then, we perform Localization (L10n) Testing, where we validate the translated content for linguistic accuracy and cultural appropriateness in each target market. This comprehensive approach ensures a seamless user experience for your global customers and helps you avoid costly cultural missteps, providing the confidence you need to expand successfully.

Our Framework

1
Step 1

Internationalization Testing

We first test the application's core architecture. We verify that the code can handle multi-byte characters (for languages like Chinese), supports right-to-left languages, and can process different date, time, and currency formats.

2
Step 2

Pseudo-Localization Testing

Before official translation, we run a pseudo-localization test. This involves replacing all text with expanded, accented characters to proactively find UI layout issues and hardcoded strings that haven't been prepared for translation.

Step 3

Linguistic Accuracy Testing

Once translations are complete, our in-country linguists review all content within the application's context. They check for grammatical accuracy, correct terminology, and ensure the tone is appropriate for the target audience.

Step 4

Localization Cosmetic Testing

We test the localized versions of the UI to find any visual defects. This includes checking for text that is truncated, misaligned, or overlaps other elements due to the expansion or contraction of translated text.

Step 5

Localized Functional Testing

We perform a final functional test on the localized build. We ensure that core features, such as search, sorting, and data input, continue to work correctly with the language and regional settings of the target market.
