The fact that Result1 is a sigma proves that the shell script did not encode the \xe4
I disagree, because the `` has some implicit translations going on that you aren't controlling.
To test it, you need to capture the raw output bytes of the -e under test. Then you can compare them to the expected values.
I show an example test where I print \xe4\xe0 twice: the first time, without a binmode in the oneliner; the second time, with a binmode in the oneliner. You can see that the bytes that are output are different. You can test that those bytes match your expectations.

__OUTPUT__
without binmode, the high 8-bit characters pass through untranslated: e4e0
ok 1 - the bytes should be unedited
and printed out during test script: 'Σα'
with binmode, xE4 gets translated to x84 for a-umlaut, and xE0 gets translated to x85 for a-grave: 8485
ok 2 - the bytes should be CP437-encoded
and printed out during test script: 'да'
