That worked Marco. Thanks guys!How did "cygmake test" know it had to call "ctest"? In the eccodes instructions, "ctest" is the command. 

Why doesn't cygport automatically symlink the cyg*dll files for tests?

Brendan,
no idea why on your build the installation is under /usr/local
for me everything is in the right place.
Please verify if you have some settings interfering

Attached version that allows tests to be passed
