# Can I test emojis and surrogate pairs?

## What are surrogates?

Surrogates, or surrogate pairs, are pairs of UTF-16 code values that encodes one special character such as an emoji.

Reference: [https://unicode.org/faq/utf_bom.html#utf16-2](https://unicode.org/faq/utf_bom.html#utf16-2)

## Chromium, Chrome and Edge

Starting with Chrome 152, emojis and surrogate pairs are supported.

Prior to Chrome 151, Chromium only [supports BMP characters](https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromedriver/issues/detail?id=2269) which includes [182 characters](https://www.johndcook.com/emoji.html) that could be treated as text or emojis depending on the surrogates.

## Firefox and Safari

Emojis and surrogate pairs are supported.
