Hello All.

=20

Can Canoo WebTest validate internationalized applications?  I have
several sets of resource files, one set per language.  Can I write a
test that works correctly regardless of which localized version I'm
testing against?  I suppose I could use the <propertyfile> task to pull
a specific set of resources, and then use message keys in the
verification tags.  Is there any easier way?  What about verifying
localized date and number formats?

Any answers are appreciated.
