Addresses part of #4148.

Using the -Name parameter on Get-ChildItem exercises a part of the file system provider code not previously covered by tests.

This compares to itself.
I suggest calling Get-ChildItem twice, once with -Name to get the name string and once without to get the fileinfo. The test would look something like the following:
$filename | Should BeExactly $fileInfo.Name

Yikes! Bad typo on my part. That should have been $filename | Should BeExactly $testFile. Is making that change sufficient, or would you prefer the dual-call method?

You're better off comparing the returned value against the name property since, I believe, that's the intent.

Well, the intent was to check that I got the item I asked for, which is why I was comparing against $testFile. But I'll go ahead with your recommendation.

Sorry jeffbi; I should have been clearer. When I said the intent of -Name, I mean the intent is to return the Name property of the FileInfo object.
The current implementation of FileInfo 'does' preserve the file name as it was passed in; however, since it's not documented explicitly, I avoid depending on it.
Additionally, I would expect the test to succeed with other values, such as .\filename.txt, ./filename.txt, and /etc/filename.txt
I hope that clarifies my feedback.
