Testing only? So you really only need to build and run on Windows...
I was doing exactly this about a year ago and used Mingw. The only
annoyance was that I could compile everything on Linux in about 3
minutes (P4 2.8Ghz), but had to wait about 60-90 minutes for the same
thing on Windows 2003 Server! (also a P4 2.8Ghz...). So I used to build
a 'go for coffee' task into the build and test cycle.
Cheers
Mark
