We currently have the majority of the tests passing, marked as known failures due to missing providers or other yet unwritten code, or confined to not run on windows since they are testing functionality that we do not plan to support (running a master, for example).
We've got a "Work in Progress" branch with a service provider for Windows that supports managing the "Start Type" (enabled), and whether the service is currently running (ensure) up on GitHub[1]. Currently, the provider does not work when transitioning a service from stopped with a start type of "disabled" to running with a start type of "automatic", or "manual". The problem is that the ResourceHarness always syncs ensure first, before syncing everything else, and Windows (understandably) refuses to start a "disabled" service.
