Description
Similar to https://github.com/prometheus/prometheus/issues/4622
I tried to run the tests on a Windows machine and some of the tests failed. It probably means that AlertManager doesn't run properly on Windows though we release the Windows binaries.
I may try to fix the tests soon but anybody pick it up if desired. Eventually we need somehow to think about which level of support we expect for Windows.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the failing tests on a Windows machine and compare the symptoms with prometheus/prometheus#4622. Identify which failures show that Alertmanager does not run correctly on Windows, then establish and document the expected level of Windows support and verify the relevant tests against it.
