@BrunoQC have tested the later version of tail? are you still encountering this issue?

[bbigras]

I didn't test since last time. I still have one failed test but it's not the same error.

@BrunoQC unfortunately you pulled while the build was failing on master. I have fixed that issue now(pull again). Let me know if you are still seeing the failure.

[bbigras]

It seems I have the same result with fff2f2d.

Looking at this one. Having slightly different errors than above, on Win7 x64:

One general way of improving the windows coverage for non-windows developers is to set up appveyor CI (a windows CI service, free for open source projects)

[martinlindhe]

Tried bumping fsnotify dependency because it contained recent Windows-fixes. No change in test results.
