I hope the tests will be working system-wide, otherwise it's a show
stopper for them. Could you maybe provide the test wrong answer? If
you are sure that it's about TERM= value, then ok, I've observed this
too, and export TERM=xterm-256color fixed the tests (on Linux).
Searching for proper termcap seems a good idea. I might also find a
docker image with the same OS and test it.
