Unable to run backend tests

I used this command to run a backend test

python -m scripts.run_backend_tests --test_target=scripts.linters.general_purpose_linter_test

@seanlip Is there an update on the status of this issue, can we still reproduce this error? I think the solution is to install configparser as mentioned by @nishantwrp above or by @nithusha21 here in #10852? Was any script modified in our codebase to fix it ? We can mention it here and possibly close the issue.

(Landed up here because I was going through issues affecting the linter)

Hi @anandwana001, could you please check with @DubeySandeep about this? He should be able to help you.

Does running the backend tests on a clean develop branch work?
