The cloud-init test environment can't be set up on CentOS 8 due to missing Python 3 dependencies. The missing libraries are at least the following:

 - contextlib2
 - unittest2

Of these unittest2 is available in the PowerTools repository as python3-unittest2, the other two are not. The PowerTools repository is currently added to the test system by the test helper scripts.

For this reason the unit testing and CI testing is currently disabled on CentOS 8.

I think we can updated this now by dropping httpretty. I currently see python3-httpretty in EPEL repo on CentOS 8.
