Why it’s important to catch i18n bugs on time
Finding bugs early and fixing them early is way more efficient (read cheaper) than finding and fixing them later on the software lifecycle. Everyone involved throughout this process, from engineers to QA to managers know it.
Cost Efficiency
Better User Experience
If users encounter localization issues, such as poorly translated text or incorrect date and number formats, it can make the product difficult or confusing to use. This can lead to user frustration and reduced satisfaction with the product.
Proper localization is key to success in international markets. If i18n bugs are not caught and fixed, they can hinder the product’s success in new markets, limiting its growth and profitability.
Market Expansion & ROI
Brand Reputation
Mistakes in localization can reflect poorly on the brand, giving the impression that the company does not care about or respect users in the affected regions. This can damage the company’s reputation and customer relationships.
Some countries have regulations regarding the localization of software, such as requirements for language, date format, etc. Not catching i18n bugs can result in legal issues and fines.
