I have following problem



I'm sending request to my API with names of polish cities with special polish chars like Kraków, Wrocław or Poznań



in postman with request GET /rest/city/?query=Kraków I received array of cities, everything is ok in this case.



I writing automation test for our API (node.js, mocha, supertest, chai using Visual Studio) and in this environment with GET /rest/city/?query=Kraków I received empty array of cities.
What's wrong? Do you have any problem with encoding like this?
