#20283 Post-release tests not working correctly Issue created by tgolsson Describe the bug Step 4 of the release process says to run

./pants run src/python/pants_release/release.py -- test-release

, which seemingly should print out the version of the latest release on the branch. However, when running this on version 2.18.x, 2.19.x, and main, it prints the version to the terminal instead of it being captured by the

subprocess.run

. I tried a few different variants such as

subprocess.check_output

, etc, but none of them gave any captured output on stdout or stderr. Additional info Posted this image on Slack while debugging; where I'm using

capture_output=True

, but you can see both stdout and stderr are empty.

before

is printed right before subprocess.run, and the standard streams are dumped immediately after. image Thread here: https://pantsbuild.slack.com/archives/C0D7TNJHL/p1702293492621779 pantsbuild/pants
