Globalization Testing

Globalization testing involves developing and testing software for multiple languages. It includes two main types: Internationalization testing (I18N), which checks if content is displayed correctly in different languages, and Localization testing (L10N), which ensures the application meets country-specific standards and culture. I18N testing focuses on language accuracy and content placement, while L10N testing assesses cultural appropriateness.
