The two tests marked as skipped on github actions were also failing for me locally, so i had a look into why - it was caused by a timezone discrepancy - the timestamp in the test data didn't specify a timezone, and the handcoded expected value was in Barcelona time, while it was being parsed as UTC. Explicitly making this a UTC timestamp removes test brittleness!
