Bug Fix
Release Notes Summary:
Fixed a bug upstream in rspec-puppet where running parallel tests with puppetlabs_spec_helper on Windows under Ruby 2.1 would intermittently fail while checking if the fixture directory junction exists.

When running parallel_spec on appveyor, the spec_prep seems to run multiple times, and subsequently fail the test process because Cannot create a file when that file already exists. (See https://ci.appveyor.com/project/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-resource-api/build/1.1.x.16/job/6xp9wwki0b5mui5o#L749).

This looks like the symlink creating code in puppetlabs_spec_helper is not idempotent enough on windows.
