1. Run the unit tests as described in {ref}`run-jest-tests-on-volto-core-label`, following the prompt to update the snapshot when the test fails.

This way of organizing translations relies on [gettext](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gettext), a proven and established system with great tool support.
