I think the both controls fails because the response of the GetCapabilities with a “NON-VALID” LANGUAGE parameter are not the same as the response without the LANGUAGE parameters
The ticket has been open for two years, the customer is still waiting for validation. Any updates?

I had the same problem.
at69: The Inspire Test validator request with LANGUAGE=chi. Geoserver doesnt know the language and throws an error.
at70: The Inspire Test validator sends a request without a LANGUAGE Parameter and expect to get the default language. I am not really sure what geoserver is sending back but I think it has no language parameter in the urls within the Capabilities it sends back.
How I solved this:
I wrote a filter (javax.servlet.Filter) and included it in the web.xml.
The filter rules to change the LANGUAGE parameter.
1. if LANGUAGE is present but not included in the supported Language set LANGUAGE=defaultLanguage
2. if LANGUAGE is not present set LANGUAGE=defaultLanguage
This could also to be done in rewrites if a proxy (apache, nginx) is be used. For me was the use of a filter the clearer way.
I try to validate with the inspire API validation my WMS service:
https://demo-geoservices8.civis.bz.it/geoserver/p_bz-Inspire/ows?service=wms&version=1.3.0&request=GetCapabilities
The validator fail on:
at69-language-default: check wrong language
at70-language-response: check language response
I think the both controls fails because the response of the GetCapabilities with a “NON-VALID” LANGUAGE parameter are not the same as the response without the LANGUAGE parameters
Here the examples:
Request without language parameter (return a valid xml): https://demo-geoservices8.civis.bz.it/geoserver/p_bz-Inspire/ows?service=wms&version=1.3.0&request=GetCapabilities
Request with language parameter (return the same response): https://demo-geoservices8.civis.bz.it/geoserver/p_bz-Inspire/ows?service=wms&version=1.3.0&request=GetCapabilities&LANGUAGE=eng
Request with invalid language parameter return the following message instead of a valid getcapabilities response: https://demo-geoservices8.civis.bz.it/geoserver/p_bz-Inspire/ows?service=wms&version=1.3.0&request=GetCapabilities&LANGUAGE=xxx
