Platform TCK refactoring

One Time JavaTest Jar Install

The JavaTest jar with GAV coords javatest:javatest:5.0 does not exist in Maven Central, so one needs to install the repo lib/javatest.jar into the local maven repo in order to build this repo with Maven. To do this, execute:

mvn install:install-file -Dfile=lib/javatest.jar -DgroupId=javatest -DartifactId=javatest -Dversion=5.0 -Dpackaging=jar

Build

From the root folder, try:

mvn clean install -Dmaven.compiler.failOnError=false > /tmp/build.txt

The ^ command will compile all sources that are included as per root pom.xml with many failures that we need to resolve.

JakartaEE TCK Jenkins Jobs

The Jenkins jobs required for certifying Eclipse GlassFish nightly builds using the latest Jakarta EE TCK bundles are hosted in the Eclipse CloudBees Infrastructure and are available under https://jenkins.eclipse.org/jakartaee-tck/

For information regarding the various JakartaEE TCK related jobs, Please refer to the wiki page below https://github.com/eclipse-ee4j/jakartaee-tck/wiki/Jakarta-EE-TCK-Jenkins-jobs

Steps required to run CTS against Standalone RI changes

1. Build the individual project and release it to Eclipse Maven repositories.

2. Integrate the individual project to GlassFish.

   Sample steps done for JTA:

   git clone https://github.com/eclipse-ee4j/glassfish.git
   git checkout -b EE4J_8
   find . -name \pom.xml -exec sed -i.bak "s/javax.transaction</jakarta.transaction</g" {} ;
   find . -name \pom.xml -exec sed -i.bak "s/javax.transaction-api</jakarta.transaction-api</g" {} ;
   mvn clean install
   

3. Upload the glassfish bundle built in the previous step as attachment to the corresponding pull request.

4. Request CTS team to run the CTS suites by tagging @anajosep and @bhatpmk

5. Provide the names of the jars (under glassfish6/glassfish/modules) that were modified in this bundle.

6. If known, specify the test areas that needs to be run, if not leave it empty.

7. Wait for the confirmation and the results uploaded from the runs against the pull request.

8. If the results are clean, commit the changes to the individual project and the changes required for integration to GlassFish.

CTS User Guide

Introduction

CTS Overview

A Java EE 8 CTS is a set of tools and tests used to verify that a licensee's implementation of Java EE 8 technology conforms to the applicable specification.

All tests in the CTS are based on the written specifications for the Java platform. The CTS tests compatibility of a licensee's implementation of a technology to the applicable specification of the technology. Compatibility testing is a means of ensuring correctness, completeness, and consistency across all implementations developed by technology licensees. The set of tests included with the Java EE 8 CTS is called the test suite. All tests in the CTS test suite are self-checking, but some tests may require tester interaction. Most tests return either a Pass or Fail status. For a given platform to be certified, all of the required tests must pass. The definition of required tests may change from platform to platform.

The definition of required tests will change over time. Before your final certification test pass, be sure to download the latest Exclude List for the Java EE 8 CTS.

About JavaEE8 CTS

Java EE 8 CTS is a portable, configurable, automated test suite for verifying the compliance of a licensee's implementation of the Java EE 8 technologies. Java EE 8 CTS includes version 5.0 of the JT harness.

For documentation on the test harness used for running the Java EE 8 CTS test suite, see https://wiki.openjdk.java.net/display/CodeTools/Documentation.

• Dependency Injection for Java 1.0 (JSR 330)

• Bean Validation 2.0 (JSR 380)

Installation

Install CTS bundle

Complete the following procedure to install the Java EE 8 CTS on a system running the Solaris, Linux, or Windows operating system.

1. Copy or download the CTS 8 software.

2. Change to the directory in which you want to install the Java EE 8 CTS software and use the unzip command to extract the bundle:

   cd install_directory
   unzip jakartaeetck-nnn.zip
   

This creates the jakartaeetck directory. The install_directory/jakartaeetck directory will be TS_HOME.

3. Set the TS_HOME environment variable to point to the jakartaeetck directory.

Install Apache Ant

1. Download the latest version of Apache Ant from the below link https://archive.apache.org/dist/ant/binaries/apache-ant--bin.zip

2. Change to the directory in which you want to install Apache Ant and extract the bundle

   unzip apache-ant-<version>-bin.zip
   

or tar zxvf apache-ant-<version>-bin.tar.gz 3. Set ANT_HOME environment variable to point to the apache-ant- directory.

4. Set PATH environment variable to use the installed ant.

Setup and Configuration

Allowed Modifications

You can modify the following test suite components only:

• Your implementation of the porting package

• ts.jte environment file

• The vendor-specific SQL files in <TS_HOME>/sql

• Any files in <TS_HOME>/bin and <TS_HOME>/bin/xml (except for ts.* files)

Configuring the Java EE 8 RI as the VI

To configure the Java EE 8 RI as the server under test (that is, to use the Java EE 8 RI as the VI) follow the steps listed below.

In this scenario, the goal is simply to test the Java EE 8 RI against the CTS for the purposes of familiarizing yourself with CTS test procedures. You may also want to refer to the Quick Start guides included with the Java EE 8 CTS for similar instructions.

1. Set server properties in your <TS_HOME>/bin/ts.jte file to suit your test environment. Be sure to set the following properties: a. Set the webServerHost property to the name of the host on which your Web server is running that is configured with the RI. The default setting is localhost.

   b. Set the webServerPort property to the port number of the host on which the Web server is running and configured with the RI. The default setting is 8001.

   c. Set the wsgen.ant.classname property to the Vendor's implementation class that mimics the RI Ant task that in turn calls the wsgen Java-to-WSDL tool. The default setting is com.sun.tools.ws.ant.WsGen.

   d. Set the wsimport.ant.classname property to the Vendor's implementation class that mimics the RI Ant task that in turn calls the wsimport WSDL-to-Java tool. The default setting is com.sun.tools.ws.ant.WsImport.

   e. Set the porting.ts.url.class property to your porting implementation class that is used for obtaining URLs. The default setting for the RI porting implementation is com.sun.ts.lib.implementation.sun.common.SunRIURL.

   f. Set the database-related properties in the <TS_HOME>/bin/ts.jte file.

   g. Add the following JVM option to the command.testExecuteAppClient property to enable the Security Manager in the application client container: -Djava.security.manager

Add this option to the list of other -D JVM options for this property. As mentioned previously, these settings can vary, but must match whatever you used when setting up the Java EE 8 RI server.

2. Install the Java EE 8 RI and configure basic settings, as described in

3. Start the Java EE 8 RI application server. Refer to the application server documentation for complete instructions.

4. Enable the Security Manager. If you are using the Java EE 8 RI, execute the following command from the command line:

   asadmin create-jvm-options -Djava.security.manager
   

5. Stop and restart your application server so it is running with the Security Manager enabled.

6. Change to the <TS_HOME>/bin directory.

7. Start your backend database.

If you are using Derby as your backend database, execute the start.javadb Ant target: ant -f xml/impl/glassfish/s1as.xml start.javadb Otherwise, refer to your backend database administration documentation for information about starting your database server.

8. Initialize your backend database. If you are using Derby as your backend database, execute the init.derby Ant target:

   ant -f xml/init.xml init.derby
   

9. Run the configuration Ant target.

   ant config.vi
   

Executing tests

Running tests in CLI mode

1. Set the TS_HOME environment variable to the directory in which Java EE 8 CTS was installed.

2. Set the JAVA_HOME environment variable to the latest version of JDK 8

3. Set the ANT_HOME environment variable to the latest version of Apache Ant installed.

4. Set the PATH environment to use the latest binaries.

   export PATH=$ANT_HOME/bin:$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH
   

5. Change to any subdirectory under <TS_HOME>/src/com/sun/ts/tests.

6. Ensure that the ts.jte file contains information relevant to your setup.

7. Execute the runclient Ant target to start the JavaTest:

   ant runclient
   

This runs all tests in the current directory and any subdirectories.

8. To run the Java EE 8 CTS signature tests, enter the following commands:

   cd <TS_HOME>/src/com/sun/ts/tests/signaturetest/javaee
   ant runclient
