Current state of support for Windows #661
Comments
Many of the testing frameworks are not supported on Windows. This commit updates the README to explain that even though the project can be bundle installed correctly, the tests cannot be run, until such time as the tests are modified: - Expect is a bash only utility - Aruba is not supported on Windows cucumber/aruba#661

I have updated the README for the upcoming 1.0.0 release accordingly. Support for Windows is tricky in general since at least Appveyor provides an almost-unix environment to run tests under. This means that available shell commands and their interface are different from what a user might encounter when running under, e.g., powershell or cmd.exe. Pull requests and suggestions on how to improve the situation are welcome. |
Summary
I read this comment and it raised the question about the current support for Windows:
Does that apply to the Alpha version (1.0.0.pre.alpha.2) or to all the versions of the Gem?
Possible Solution
If the Windows support is experimental we could inform this in the README 📜
Context & Motivation
I'm updating a book that uses Aruba and I would like to inform the readers if they may find bugs on Windows.
