Hi Martin,

I have updated the test based on your comments and split the old logic 
into different functions to test legal or illegal surrogate pairs. Can 
you please help to review it?

For your last comment "reversed surrogate", I'm not sure whether my 
understanding is correct. Does that mean reverse legal surrogate e.g. 
\uD800\uDC00 to \uDC00\uD800 which is kind of malformed surrogate.
I have covered this case in the test.

Thanks,
Eric
