Solution: At line400Error reported for utf8 encoding 0xb2 decoding: invalid

We must remember to delete the testrunner.pyc file and restart ride every time after modifying the testrunner.py file, otherwise it’s the same as changing it for nothing~!

 

    def pop(self):

        result = “”

        for _in xrange(self._queue.qsize()):

            try:

                result += self._queue.get_nowait()

            except Empty:

                pass

        return result.decode(‘UTF-8’)

Change UTF-8 to GBK

Then fix the problem!
