Basque Website Testing

Basque Web site testing is a crucial quality control phase in the process of Basque Web site globalization. In order to effectively communicate to potential Basque-speaking customers, you must ensure your Web site is linguistically and culturally appropriate to them. In order to ensure your localized Basque Web site is fully functional and completely adapted to target users, a localization company must use experienced Basque-speaking Web site testers and follow a thorough test plan.

A localization company should use professional, native-speaking specialists to execute Basque Web site testing. With the goal of matching the performance of the Basque Web site to that of the source site, Basque-speaking Web site testers take the following aspects of the site into account during testing: browser compatibility, connection speeds, traffic, security, design, linking, translation accuracy, functionality, and more.

Translators and Web designers should work side-by-side with a company's own expert users to track and solve issues before the Basque Web site is launched. Typical Web site testing phases include:

Basque Web Site Internationalization Testing

Before Basque Web site translation begins, Basque Web site testing professionals test the source language site for international support and localizability. Basque Web site internationalization testing saves time and money by exposing potential trouble areas early in the localization process.

Basque Web Site Localization Testing

After Basque Web site translation, testing specialists review the Basque Web site in context to check for any linguistic or cosmetic issues. Linguistic testing deals with all language-related issues of a localized Web site or Web application, including currency symbols, locale-specific text, and more. Cosmetic testing deals with all visual issues to ensure that the Basque characters display correctly under various browser and operating system scenarios.

Basque Web Site Functionality Validation or Testing

After your Basque Web site has been localized, tests are performed using a variety of platforms and test scripts to verify that your Web site works properly for your target users. Testing concerns at this phase include ensuring the Web site's features/functionality work as they did in the original source language version of the site.
