Description

The Sling Mock package allows developers to load content from a json file using the ContentLoader.

ContentLoader.json(JSON_PATH, TARGET)

The actual loading is performed in ContentLoader.java:327 using

IOUtils.toString(inputStream);

As soon as you try to load a UTF-8 encoded JSON (as per default) on a windows platform, this fails due to encoding issues:

"jcr:title": "English Ö",

is loaded as

English [Ö]

As json is per definition UTF-8 encoded, I would suggest to set the encoding explicit by changing the line above to

return IOUtils.toString(inputStream, "UTF-8");
