 I'm opening this ticket after the weekly hosting-community meeting on
 Slack.

 The original report can be found on the phpunit-test-runner Github issues
 at https://github.com/WordPress/phpunit-test-runner/issues/89 .

 It seems that we're forcing the test setup here to use MyISAM ,
 https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-
 develop/blob/master/tests/phpunit/tests/dbdelta.php#L49 which isn't
 supported in some environments.

 Specifically in this case the MariaDB Galera Cluster only supports
 InnoDB/XtraDB so the tests are failing.

 As WordPress doesn't require MyISAM in general & if possible we should be
 adding a check here to see what engine is supported and change from MyISAM
 to InnoDB respectively to avoid issues like this.
