1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
receiving a non-phonetic voice command spoken in a language with a non-phonetic alphabet during a testing phase of an application prototype;
translating the non-phonetic voice command into a phonetic text string in a phonetic alphabet;
comparing the translated phonetic text string of the voice command to stored phonetic text strings in the phonetic alphabet of voice commands associated with the application prototype to identify a matching voice command; and
performing an action associated with the matching voice command.
