Description
This test does not generate html report:
def test_encode(self): var = "just random print:"+"'\u200e'" print(var)
But this test does:
def test_encode(self): var = "just random print:"+"'\u200e'" var = str(var.encode('utf-8')) print(var)
Is there any way to handle this from conftest.py? so that explicit encoding is not needed in every print statements?

Research direction
Start by reproducing the two test_encode examples from the issue, first with the Unicode character printed directly and then with the explicit UTF-8 encoding. Inspect conftest.py and the HTML report generation path to find where the direct output fails. Done means the HTML report is generated for the direct Unicode print without requiring encoding in each test.
