You can reproduce the bug by deleting is_string($index) && on line 293 of system/HTTP/RequestTrait.php and then running the tests.

Sorry, now I see that this is about something different than I originally thought - even though you described it correctly from the beginning.

I guess it was too early for me this morning...

This is a bug in FeatureTestTrait class and should be fixed in this file. It seems to me that we should check $this->bodyFormat in the populateGlobals() method when we check the condition for post: https://github.com/codeigniter4/CodeIgniter4/blob/develop/system/Test/FeatureTestTrait.php#L382

I'm afraid the proposed changes are not the right ones. But after my slip-up, I will wait for the opinions of others.

No problem. I just patched it blindly, but surely someone more familiar with the codebase can come up with a better approach.
