Manifests using the module aren't testable in windows

[alonisser]

When I run puppet test on my manifests using puppet-python:

puppet apply --noop --modulepath=modules manifests\default.pp

I just need to verify that puppet builds the correct catalog etc. but instead I get a Module is not compatible with windows error.

This is a common scenerio when using vagrant+puppet on windows to provision a virtual linux machine.
The problem comes from this code in init.pp:

  $compatible = [ 'Debian', 'Ubuntu', 'CentOS', 'RedHat' ]
  if ! ($::operatingsystem in $compatible) {
    fail("Module is not compatible with ${::operatingsystem}")
  }

Let me make my self clear This is a complete valid failure when running puppet apply on windows without the --noop flag.
But this shouldn't fail on a test scenerio. Maybe when --noop is on puppet arguments the module should notify but not fail.

This module is compatible with Debian and Redhat. Sorry for the inconvenience.

@shivapoudel I think a good start for enabling support would be to change the fail into a warning
