I guess the tests fail because CI VMs has already UTC time zone. In any case we should take into account time zone.
Perhaps follow will be more reliable test:
(Get-date -Date:"2020-01-01T00:00:00").Kind | Should -Be [DateTimeKind]::Local
(Get-date -Date:"2020-01-01T00:00:00" -AsUTC).Kind | Should -Be [DateTimeKind]::UtcThere was a problem hiding this comment.
Done
(I had to modify the test a little from what you wrote, but I think it captures the same thing)
