But still not too sure, if it’s worth the effort. Often I rely on Java internal methods (e.g. for NFC normalization) and I guess they are already well-tested.

I had the idea noticing that your unit tests have hard-coded test ins, expects and asserts, just like mine do. Alternatively I can copy from your tests to get better coverage in mine.
