The test doesn't check the normalization logic in `CDataTransferer.m`, it actually tests that the string is unchanged during transfer through clipboard. The test just prepares the initial string so that it won't be affected by the normalization. So it looks like that normalization in test was added to make the test pass on all platforms, including macOS. The test would pass even after the change I've made to `CDataTransferer.m`. I'm making a modification to it, so that it would now verify that even a non-normalized string passes through clipboard unchanged. The test keeps passing on Windows, Linux and macOS after the change. ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/6866
