Hi Neil, I believe you are the original author of this test. It is failing intermittently on windows, would you have a chance to have a look at this please? Either that or perhaps disable it? Thanks!

I'm attempting to green-up tests on Windows 7 VM (AWS) and it seems to fail quite alot there, in this case 12 times in 50 test runs:

Attachment: Remove part of test

The failing part of the test uses a wrapper and we don't really need to test this.
