Puppet users - Oct 2013 - Using puppetlabs_spec_helper on Windows 7

I''m trying to make puppetlabs_spec_helper runs on Windows 7 to test my 
Puppet modules.
 
Is this supported ? Because I encountered some problems:

   1. symlinks were not created on Windows 7 (even if the functionnality 
   are availabe). To manage that I added to rake_tasks.rb an ugly function:
   
   def make_link(source,target)
     ruby_platform = RbConfig::CONFIG[''host_os'']
     if RUBY_PLATFORM =~ /mswin|mingw|cygwin/ then
       #Windows Stuff
       source_win=source.tr("/","\\")
       target_win=target.tr("/","\\")
       `call mklink /D #{target_win} #{source_win}`
     elsif RUBY_PLATFORM =~ /linux/ then
       FileUtils::ln_s(source, target)
     end
   end
   
   2. undefined method `fetch'' for nil:NilClass:
   
        Failure/Error: Unable to find matching line from backtrace
        NoMethodError:
          undefined method `fetch'' for nil:NilClass
        # C:/Program Files/Puppet 
   Labs/Puppet/puppet/lib/puppet/test/test_helper.rb:107:in `block in 
   after_each_test''
        # C:/Program Files/Puppet 
   Labs/Puppet/puppet/lib/puppet/test/test_helper.rb:106:in `each''
        # C:/Program Files/Puppet 
   Labs/Puppet/puppet/lib/puppet/test/test_helper.rb:106:in
`after_each_test''
   
   3. I use the concat module. And when running "rake test", I got:
   
   Failure/Error: should contain_package(''nfs-utils'')
        Puppet::Error:
          $concat_basedir not defined. Try running again with 
   pluginsync=true on the [master] section of your node''s 
   ''/etc/puppet/puppet.conf''.

 
Is it a lost cause ? Or someone succeeded to test puppet modules on Windows 
?
 
Thank you for your help !

I do have the same error on linux.

It has something tot do with the concat module.

If you write a rspec file for a class not using the concat module, it 
should work.

Unfortunately, i do not have a solution for our problem.
