    hcdbh14 , I checked documentation, and looks like Himanshu is correct - Unicode usage is quite limited in ReadyAPI:

     

    >>

    Currently, ReadyAPI has a number of limitations related to Unicode characters:

    • ReadyAPI does not show Unicode characters in the following panels:

      • Test item properties

      • ReadyAPI logs

      • Assertions

    The issue affects only displaying characters. ReadyAPI does not modify any strings.
