Patrick Bannister commented on CASSANDRA-14298: ----------------------------------------------- The encoding problem is environmental. Python subprocesses uses whatever is returned by locale.getpreferredencoding(). We can do this on a Debian based platform (such as Ubuntu) by setting LC_CTYPE='C.UTF-8'. We could simply say that this environment setting is a prerequisite for the cqlsh_tests, but I think we can do one better: {code:java} class TestCqlsh(Tester): @classmethod def setUpClass(cls): cls._cached_driver_methods = monkeypatch_driver() os.environ['LC_CTYPE'] = 'C.UTF-8' # override environment locale setting to prefer UTF-8 encoding @classmethod def tearDownClass(cls): unmonkeypatch_driver(cls._cached_driver_methods) def setUp(self): self.cluster.set_environment_variable('LC_CTYPE', 'C.UTF-8') # the cluster is already configured, so we have to override its environment locale too {code} I have to admit I don't know what this will do on Windows, but I've tested it on my Ubuntu environment and it works fine. I'll issue a new patch with these additions. I'll also re-post the current patch as the "old" patch, if you'd prefer to stick with it and just declare that this environment variable setting is a prerequisite to running these tests. > cqlshlib tests broken on b.a.o > ------------------------------ > > Key: CASSANDRA-14298 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-14298 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Build, Testing > Reporter: Stefan Podkowinski > Assignee: Patrick Bannister > Priority: Major > Labels: cqlsh, dtest > Attachments: CASSANDRA-14298.txt, CASSANDRA-14298_old.txt, > cqlsh_tests_notes.md > > > It appears that cqlsh-tests on builds.apache.org on all branches stopped > working since we removed nosetests from the system environment.
