Test::TCP is currently randomly failing randomly on Win32 and i believe i was able to pinpoint the reason and fix it. The fix is in this pull request: https://github.com/tokuhirom/test-tcp/pull/4 Some background info: I believe this to be a race condition since i was only able to consistently reproduce the error on slow machines. Since implementing it i've tested the branch numerous times on slow and fast windows machines as well as on linux and it passed fine everywhere. If you have any questions or change requests on the pull request, please don't hesitate to ask, i'll happily oblige. :)

Since you asked me to make the changes smaller in scope, i looked it over and could reduce it a lot, hope this will be easier to accept. :) https://github.com/tokuhirom/test-tcp/pull/5
