powershell - Process kill test is unreliable

      The test and possible the powershell_manager itself, should be refactored so that the second call to Process.kill is not done. We want to verify that the powershell_manager has called kill without having to duplicate that effort in an unreliable way.

      Description

      The powershell_manager_spec.rb test at line 61 ('should fail if the manger is created with a short timeout') is unreliable.

      After the powershell_manager has already called Process.kill, the test then attempts to do so a second to verify that it results in an error. The error is our indication that the first call inside the powershell_manager was successful and the test should pass. Unfortunately the result of this second call to Process.kill is unreliable. You can get many failures of this test in a row, and then suddenly it passes.
