product in the respective countries native language and then
market it. But localization involves structured approached
while development and in process of localization its
possible some bugs gets mingled with the product.

Answer / shanthu
Testing done for format specification according to region or
country is called localization testing or L10N Testing.
Different format testing we do in L10N Testing are:
1. Currency Format Testing
Ex: 100$, $100, Rs100. The standard should be as per country
standards.
2. Date Format testing
Ex: In US, date format is : MM-DD-YY
in India, date format is: DD-MM-YYYY
3. Pincode format testing
There are countries having pincode with charactres like
AB100. Here, Checking for the format in pincode is L10N
testing.
