I have a need to test an app (.Net) on a Taiwanese version of Windows.
Problems:
Does anyone have any experience with this? How would I go about setting up an appropriate environment to test on?
VMs are ideal for i18n testing. Create a VM for each OS languauge you need, and you’re sorted. There is an “all languages” version of Windows, but since that isn’t what your client is going to be using it isn’t a true test.
To get the true experience, you do need to have the right OS language – for example, .NET error messages can be wildly different (let’s hope nothing is coded to the exact strings ;-p).
However, not knowing the text (to see what is right/wrong) could be a big problem.
