I'm trying to implement a cross-platform (desktop browsers, iOS, & Android) typography system that allows users to input any Unicode string.
What are some strings I should use to stress-test my system and ensure the most nines of users will have a good experience? Is there a standard or de-facto standard list that I can also use?

ASCII and Unicode are two popular encoding schemes. ASCII encodes symbols, digits, letters, etc., whereas Unicode encodes special texts from different languages, letters, symbols, etc.
If you are unable to read some Unicode characters in your browser, it may be because your system is not properly configured. Here are some basic instructions for doing that. There are two basic steps: Install fonts that cover the characters you need.
Unicode uses two encoding forms: 8-bit and 16-bit, based on the data type of the data that is being that is being encoded. The default encoding form is 16-bit, where each character is 16 bits (2 bytes) wide. Sixteen-bit encoding form is usually shown as U+hhhh, where hhhh is the hexadecimal code point of the character.
Unicode is a universal character set. It is aimed to include all the characters needed for any writing system or language. The first code point positions in Unicode use 16 bits to represent the most commonly used characters in a number of languages. This Basic Multilingual Plane allows for 65,536 characters.
Here are some strings that I use in tests like that:
