Testing

windows

To run the windows tests on a fedora-like box,

• download and install vagrant from their website, do not use distrib package. WinRM is somehow broken at that day.
• install winrm plugin: vagrant plugin install vagrant-winrm
• execute npm run test-windows
• wait, a looooooonnnnggggg time. Windows images are very big....

linux

To run the linux tests on a fedora-like box,

• download and install vagrant
• execute npm run test-not-windows

or just

• download and install mocha
• mocha test/not-windows.js

TODOS

• add tests for win7
• add tests for win8
• add tests for win10
• add tests for win2008 server
• add tests for vista ?

The problem is mostly about finding / building vagrant boxes of those OS.

If you run some of those systems, i d be happy if you run the tests and communicate the results.

Notes

A static build version of wget is included in this repository for testing purposes on windows.

The reasons are :

• power shell is not a reliable tool to do so because it provides such thing only from version 3.0
• windows does not provide alternative to power shell capabilities
• i was lazy to write a statically built C component
• it exists.
