Comment:

 I think the test is incorrect in expecting `text/plain` instead of
 `text/x-python` as the content type for a Python file

 `test_file_response` in `tests/asgi/tests.py` fails for me as well.

 {{{
 (.venv) PS D:\source\django\tests> py runtests.py asgi.tests
 ...
 ======================================================================
 FAIL: test_file_response (asgi.tests.ASGITest)
 Makes sure that FileResponse works over ASGI.

 AssertionError: Items in the first set but not the second:
 (b'Content-Type', b'text/x-python')
 Items in the second set but not the first:
 (b'Content-Type', b'text/plain')
 }}}

 My environment (Windows 10 Pro Build 20211):

 {{{
 >>> sys.platform
 'win32'
 >>> sys.getwindowsversion()
 sys.getwindowsversion(major=10, minor=0, build=20211, platform=2,
 service_pack='')
 >>> sys.version
 '3.8.5 (tags/v3.8.5:580fbb0, Jul 20 2020, 15:57:54) [MSC v.1924 64 bit
 (AMD64)]'
 }}}

 The `set_headers` method of `django.http.FileResponse` queries the content
 type of the file on
 [https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/django/http/response.py#L467
 line 467]:

 {{{
 content_type, encoding = mimetypes.guess_type(filename)
 }}}

 On my machine, the above line sets `content_type` to `text/x-python`, but
 [https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/tests/asgi/tests.py#L79 line
 79] in the test file expects `text/plain` on Windows platforms:

 {{{
 self.assertEqual(
     set(response_start['headers']),
     {
         (b'Content-Length', str(len(test_file_contents)).encode('ascii')),
         (b'Content-Type', b'text/plain' if sys.platform == 'win32' else
 b'text/x-python'),  # line 79
         (b'Content-Disposition', b'inline; filename="urls.py"'),
     },
 )
 }}}

 The test method is incorrect, but why doesn't this fail on Jenkins? Is
 Jenkins running the tests on Windows 10 or an older version? The
 [https://docs.python.org/3/library/mimetypes.html#mimetypes.guess_type
 Python documentation] for `mimetypes.guess_type` doesn't shed much light,
 specifically on whether the function returns `text/plain` for python files
 on Windows platforms (perhaps previous versions).
