change the _clear_flags function in seq2seq\seq2seq\test\pipeline_test.py to

def _clear_flags():
  """Resets Tensorflow's FLAG values"""
  #pylint: disable=W0212
  for flag_key in dir(tf.app.flags.FLAGS):
    delattr(tf.app.flags.FLAGS, flag_key)
  #tf.app.flags.FLAGS = tf.app.flags._FlagValues()
  tf.app.flags._global_parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()

this has worked for me
