Describe: When uint8 datatype is to be outputted in the message by _compare_expect_and_actual_outputs, direct cast using str(), causes to throw an error related to encoding (data is incorrectly treated as array of characters instead of array of numbers). To mitigate this, the data is cast to np.array which then can be safely cast to string.
