Intelligent Multilingual Software Testing Tool

This paper proposes a novel software testing tool to allow software testers to test a product that is not in tester´s native language. It is composed of a test case generator, an internationalization knowledge base, and a test verifier. The test case generator accepts a native test case and outputs an equivalent case in the target language. The internationalization knowledge base is a collection of data sets and procedures for the generator to use when creating its test cases in the target language. The expected output has a format corresponding to a language-specific format rule of the target language. The tool also includes a test verifier that determines whether an output generated by application of the test case to the software product matches the expected output.
