Bad encoding on standard and mocha themes when printing to Eclipse's console

[nlisker]

When using the plain theme, the output is fine:

com.toys.OperationTest

  Test testTimes() FAILED

  org.opentest4j.AssertionFailedError: TIMES should multiply 2 and 3 to be 6 ==> expected: <5.0> but was: <6.0>
      at com.toys.OperationTest.testTimes(OperationTest.java:20)

  Test testPlus() PASSED

FAILURE: Executed 2 tests in 853ms (1 failed)

However, when using standard or mocha the output is:

�[0K�[1mcom.toys.OperationTest�[m

�[0K�[1m  Test �[22mtestTimes()�[31m FAILED�[31m

  org.opentest4j.AssertionFailedError: TIMES should multiply 2 and 3 to be 6 ==> expected: <5.0> but was: <6.0>
      at com.toys.OperationTest.testTimes(OperationTest.java:20)

�[0K�[1m  Test �[22mtestPlus()�[32m PASSED�[m

�[0K�[1;31mFAILURE: �[39mExecuted 2 tests in 817ms (1 failed)�[m

The run configuration for the gradle test command specifies UTF-8 encoding.

Using Eclipse 4.9

Sounds like Eclipse console doesn't support ANSI escape codes. Have you tried installing plugins that enable this such as ANSI Escape Console?

Can confirm that installing the ANSI Escape Console Eclipse plugin as mentioned above resolves the issue.
