Ah, thank you. That didn't exactly solve it, but it certainly pointed me in

I added that to my settings, and it still failed. I took a look at

SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'character_set%';

Try adding this to both entries in your DATABASES test settings:
'TEST': {
'CHARSET': 'utf8',
'COLLATION': 'utf8_general_ci',
},
