[issue10417] unittest triggers UnicodeEncodeError with non-ASCII character in the docstring of the test function

[Michael Foord]

Michael Foord <michael at voidspace.org.uk> added the comment:

The issue is with a non-ascii character in a *Unicode* docstring. Python has to encode the string to write it to the terminal; the encode is implicit and so fails.

The problem doesn't happen with Python 3 unless you run on an ascii terminal.
