Description

Sadly for me, working in Windows isn't something I have the luxury of choosing.

I do have access to OS X also, but it's the rest of the team (and build server) is on Windows. I was able to clone the repository on OS X, "npm install -D" and run the tests successfully.

When I did the same on Windows, all tests fail - and the module itself doesn't work.

I'm unsure if the tests are failing because of the plugin itself, or because Tape doesn't support Windows - but I've been unsuccessful in getting the plugin to work on Windows :(

Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported `npm install -D` setup and test run on Windows, then compare the failures with the successful OS X run. The issue is resolved when the tests pass and the module works on Windows, with the cause identified as factor-bundle or Tape.
