Abstract
A method and system for generating multi-byte equivalents based upon single byte source test data for use in testing a computer program. A method for testing multi-byte data handling can include the steps of converting each single byte native text character of a source string to a multi-byte equivalent to produce a multi-byte test string. Subsequently, the multi-byte test string can be provided to a testing tool for use when testing a computer program. Notably, the multi-byte equivalent can be a wide Latin equivalent.
