Comment:
The issue here seems to related to ticket #2315 and
[https://github.com/django/django/blob/f59a0401e5d0e19568a038f2a50954d1a9a1526f/django/conf/__init__.py#L119-L129
the lack of time.tzset() on Windows]. This causes
[https://github.com/django/django/blob/f59a0401e5d0e19568a038f2a50954d1a9a1526f/tests/admin_filters/tests.py#L231
datetime.date.today] to return a different value on Windows (ignoring the
time zone) than on Unix because the time zone that Django sets is never
activated on Windows.
Absent another solution, we can skip the test on Windows, but I'm not sure
what this means for timezone support on Windows in general. A note in
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/stable/topics/i18n/timezones/ the
timezone docs] might be useful.
