michael@0: Integration Tests for ECMAScript Internationalization API
michael@0: =========================================================
michael@0: 
michael@0: The tests in this directory test the integration of the ICU library
michael@0: (Internationalization Components for Unicode) into the implementation of the
michael@0: ECMAScript Internationalization API in SpiderMonkey.
michael@0: 
michael@0: These integration tests are complementary to:
michael@0: 
michael@0: - The Test402 test suite maintained by Ecma TC39, which tests conformance of
michael@0:   an implementation to standard ECMA-402, ECMAScript Internationalization API
michael@0:   Specification. Test402 is currently maintained as part of Test262, the overall
michael@0:   conformance test suite for ECMAScript; for more information, see
michael@0:   http://wiki.ecmascript.org/doku.php?id=test262:test262
michael@0: 
michael@0: - The test suite of the ICU library, which tests the implementation of ICU
michael@0:   itself and correct interpretation of the locale data it obtains from CLDR
michael@0:   (Common Locale Data Repository). For information on ICU, see
michael@0:   http://site.icu-project.org
michael@0: 
michael@0: The integration tests check for a variety of locales and options whether the
michael@0: results are localized in a way that indicates correct integration with ICU.
michael@0: Such tests are somewhat fragile because the underlying locale data reflects
michael@0: real world usage and is therefore subject to change. When the ICU library used
michael@0: by Mozilla is upgraded, it is likely that some of the integration tests will
michael@0: fail because of locale data changes; however, others might fail because of
michael@0: actual software bugs. Failures therefore have to be examined carefully.
