+    On Windows, Poetry installs console scripts of editable dependencies by creating
+    in the environment's `Scripts/` directory both:
+
+        A) a Python file named after the console script (no `.py` extension) which
+            imports and calls the console script using Python code
+        B) a CMD script file also named after the console script
+            (with `.cmd` extension) which calls `python.exe` to execute (A)
+
+    This configuration enables calling the console script by name from `cmd.exe`
+    because the `.cmd` file extension appears by default in the PATHEXT environment
+    variable that `cmd.exe` uses to determine which file should be executed if a
+    filename without an extension is executed as a command.
+
+    This test validates that you can also run such a CMD script file via `poetry run`
+    just by providing the script's name without the `.cmd` extension.
