Add

Expect.isFalse(new File(link.path).existsSync());

more cases below.

[Anders Johnsen, 2013/04/08 06:50:49]

These kinds of 'exists' tests are tested in the file_system_exists_test.

Just use 

  if (Platform.operatingSystem != 'windows') {
    ...
  }

[Anders Johnsen, 2013/04/08 06:50:49]

Done.
