RE: testing Context O/J

[Abdulrahman I. ALGhadir]

Hey again,
Sorry it took me awhile to do the test due the fact I was abit busy back then.
When I was trying to compile the test-lookup.c with a set of examples of 
existent domains I got this error msg:
expected rc 0 got rc -206

I have attached the file in case you want to see them.

Abdulrahman,

Hi Abdulrahman, and welcome!  Your help is really important, I don't
have your expertise.

What would help if you have a bunch (say 10-20) common R2L domains to
make sure we don't introduce any serious regressions.  You want to add
them to tests/test-lookup.c like the following:

static const struct idna idna[] = {
...
  {"\xe6\xb5\x8b\xe8\xaf\x95", "xn--0zwm56d" },

The first string is escaped UTF-8 and the second is the ACE encoding.

Second, and perhaps more challenging, is to prepare real corner-case
test vectors that triggers the IDNA2008 rules related to CONTEXT O/J and
BIDI rules.  What we would want is to make sure all paths in the code is
tested.

I'm going to prepare code coverage charts for libidn2, which would help
to identify which parts needs testing -- that will help us find the
necessary test vectors.
