Due to the complexity of building CouchDB on the Windows platform, full build documentation and all necessary support files are in the couchdb-glazier repository.
Be sure to find the branch that matches the release you are building, for
example couchdb_2.0.
Once all dependencies are built and installed per the documentation in couchdb-glazier, these commands will configure and build CouchDB:
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass .\configure.ps1
make -f Makefile.win check
This will build couchdb, as well as run the eunit and javascript tests.
As of CouchDB 2.0 RC1, all tests should pass.
