Problems with Row.getTimestamp() and time zones

[RyanHoldren]

I am having an issue with getTimestamp() and time zones. The following test fails because the actual result is offset to my local time. Prefixing the SQL query with SET TIME ZONE 'UTC' has no effect.

package com.github.ryanholdren.example;

import com.github.pgasync.ConnectionPool;
import com.github.pgasync.ConnectionPoolBuilder;
import com.opentable.db.postgres.embedded.EmbeddedPostgres;
import static com.opentable.db.postgres.embedded.EmbeddedPostgres.start;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.time.Instant;
import static java.time.Instant.parse;
import static org.junit.Assert.assertEquals;
import org.junit.Test;
import org.postgresql.ds.PGSimpleDataSource;

public class TimeZoneTest {

	private static final String SQL = "SELECT TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE '2004-10-19T10:23:54Z' AS output;";
	private static final Instant EXPECTED = parse("2004-10-19T10:23:54Z");

	@Test
	public void test() throws IOException {
		try (final EmbeddedPostgres postgres = start()) {
			final PGSimpleDataSource database = (PGSimpleDataSource) postgres.getPostgresDatabase();
			final ConnectionPool pool = new ConnectionPoolBuilder()
				.hostname("localhost")
				.port(postgres.getPort())
				.database(database.getDatabaseName())
				.username(database.getUser())
				.password(database.getPassword())
				.build();
			final Instant actual = pool.queryRows(SQL).map(row -> {
				return row.getTimestamp(0).toInstant();
			}).toBlocking().first();
			assertEquals(EXPECTED, actual);
		}
	}

}
