How to support other languages in Android emulator?

Reading the Android Training about the "Supporting Different Languages" [1] and after running emulator, the default language is English. I.e.:

MyProject/
    res/
       values/
           strings.xml
       values-es/
           strings.xml
       values-fr/
           strings.xml

1) How can we test the emulator in view of other languages?

2) We have to install additional languages ​​to support it?

I would like to view the screen in the language in French and then Spanish. In settings of the emulator does not have these languages ​​available to choose from.
