Bug 230082 – Running iOS layout tests sometimes fails with a utf-8 error

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: FIXED
• Component: Tools / Tests

[Simon Fraser (smfr)]

Running iOS layout tests sometimes fails with a script error:

Python 2.7.16

[Jonathan Bedard]

Is this a Python 2.7 error? run-webkit-tests should be totally Python 3 now, but I would also be surprised if we get this error in Python 2

[Simon Fraser (smfr)]

Not sure if it uses Python 2.7 when running; that's just what `python --version` returns for me.

Adding some logging suggests that this is raw PNG data:

Why are we trying to decode this as Unicode?

[Jonathan Bedard]

We seem to think that output should be text? Is an image defined there? Seems like a logic error in this function.

To clarify, your checkout has a python3 shebang in run-webkit-tests, right?

[Simon Fraser (smfr)]

#!/usr/bin/env python3

yes

[Simon Fraser (smfr)]

This happens for me when a test times out; at driver.py:264 we're just dumping the rest of stdout but here it contains PNG data, which is normally processed by _read_block.

[Simon Fraser (smfr)]

Workaround:

Is this testable?

Not easily.

The fix is in "run_test", and looking through our existing tests, we don't call that function outside of production code.
