From ce1e701de2e738f9945c2ffb6defd5cc3641f341 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Serhiy Storchaka Date: Mon, 3 Aug 2026 19:48:04 +0300 Subject: [PATCH 1/2] gh-154863: Check the encoded bytes in the shift state flush test The test decoded the output back and checked the ASCII in the result, so it tested the decoder too. The ASCII is written to the output as is, so checking it there tests only the encoder. Comparing with the same text without the character also detects a character encoded as nothing.
