A developer has created a corpus of 300 Unicode strings designed to expose flaws in naive text handling functions, particularly `len()`. The corpus includes various complex Unicode features like ZWJ sequences and astral codepoints, with 20 cases provided for free under a CC0 license. The full dataset, available for purchase, aims to help developers identify how their text processing code behaves with user-pasteable strings, highlighting that simple tests like emoji handling do not guarantee comprehensive coverage.
