When using Jest with Sequelize, you may encounter issues with unsupported encoding types. Specifically, 'cesu8' encoding is not recognized, causing authentication problems during testing.
To troubleshoot encoding issues with MySQL in Sequelize, ensure that the database and connection configurations are aligned with recognized encoding formats like 'utf8' or 'utf8mb4'.
In cases where 'cesu8' is specified, consider removing it or replacing it with supported encodings. This can resolve connection errors that occur during tests.
It is advisable to check your Sequelize database connection settings and utilize alternatives such as 'utf8' for compatibility with MySQL and Jest testing.
