Why are you saying that? Tests should run in a predictable environment - we don't them to fail for people whose computers are configured to use a different language or locale.

The ICU function that I mentioned does check LANG as part of fallback, so this is definitely one of the ways to make it use what we want. Other things that it checks are LC_ALL and LC_CTYPE environment variables, and the current POSIX locale.

The question is how to most cleanly make WebKitTestRunner use a consistent locale in all of the processes (including WebProcess and NetworkProcess). Given that it's an app, I suggest looking if Info.plist and/or localization changes can achieve that.
