3 Installation

This chapter explains how to install the Jakarta Servlet TCK software.

After installing the software according to the instructions in this chapter, proceed to Chapter 4, "Setup and Configuration," for instructions on configuring your test environment.

3.1 Obtaining a Compatible Implementation

Each compatible implementation (CI) will provide instructions for obtaining their implementation. Eclipse GlassFish 6.0 is a compatible implementation which may be obtained from https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/ee4j.glassfish

3.2 Installing the Software

Before you can run the Servlet TCK tests, you must install and set up the following software components:

  • A Jakarta EE 9 Compatible Implementation (for example Eclipse GlassFish 6.0) or, at a minimum, a Web server with a Servlet container

  • Java SE 8

  • Apache Ant 1.10.0+

  • A CI for Servlet 5.0, one example is Eclipse GlassFish 6.0

  • Servlet TCK version 5.0, which includes:

    • JDOM 1.1.3

    • Apache Commons HTTP Client 3.1

    • Apache Commons Logging 1.1.3

    • Apache Commons Codec 1.9

  • The Servlet 5.0 Vendor Implementation (VI)

Follow these steps:

  1. Install the Java SE 8 software, if it is not already installed.
    Download and install the Java SE 8 software from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html. Refer to the installation instructions that accompany the software for additional information.

  2. Install the Apache Ant 1.10.0+ software, if it is not already installed.
    Download and install Apache Ant 1.10.0+ software from Apache Ant Project. For complete information about Ant, refer to the extensive documentation on the Apache Ant Project site. The Apache Ant Manual is available at http://ant.apache.org/manual/index.html. Apache Ant is protected under the Apache Software, License 2.0, which is is available on the Apache Ant Project license page at http://ant.apache.org/license.html.

  3. Install the Servlet TCK 5.0 software.

    1. Copy or download the Servlet TCK software to your local system.
      You can obtain the Servlet TCK software from the Jakarta EE site https://jakarta.ee/specifications/servlet/5.0/.

    2. Use the unzip command to extract the bundle in the directory of your choice:
      unzip jakarta-servlet-tck-5.0.1.zip
      This creates the TCK directory. The TCK is the test suite home, <TS_HOME>.

  1. Install the Jakarta EE 9 CI software (the servlet Web container used for running the Servlet TCK with the Servlet 5.0 CI), if it is not already installed.
    Download and install the Servlet Web container with the Servlet 5.0 CI used for running the Servlet TCK 5.0, represented by the Jakarta EE 9 CI. If you intend to use Eclipse GlassFish 6.0, you may obtain this software via the downloads tab from the project website: https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/ee4j.glassfish.

  2. Install a Servlet 5.0 Compatible Implementation.
    A Compatible Implementation is used to validate your initial configuration and setup of the Servlet TCK 5.0 tests, which are explained further in Chapter 4, "Setup and Configuration."
    The Compatible Implementations for Servlet are listed on the Jakarta EE Specifications web site: https://jakarta.ee/specifications/servlet/5.0/.

  1. Install a Web server on which the Servlet TCK test applications can be published for testing the VI.

  2. Install the Servlet VI to be tested.
    Follow the installation instructions for the particular VI under test.
