There are a few symlink tests in org.eclipse.core.tests.resources that were never run on Windows but are going to be enabled for Windows via bug 440283. At the moment there are a few tests that fail since they were never designed to support Windows, especially tests in the SymlinkTest class. We need to make sure those tests are Windows-aware and green if we run them on Windows with administrator privileges.
The following symlink tests fail when run on Windows 7 with administrator privileges and need to be adjusted: SymlinkTest.testSymlinkAttributes SymlinkTest.testRecursiveSymlink SymlinkTest.testSymlinkPutExecutable SymlinkTest.testBrokenSymlinkAttributes SymlinkTest.testSymlinkPutReadOnly Failure in SymlinkResourceTest.testBug232426 is already known and tracked in bug 363463.
