This chapter explains how to install the Java EE Connector Architecture 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 the Reference Implementation

You can obtain the JCA Reference Implementation (RI) (Java EE 8 RI) software from Java Licensee Engineering (https://javapartner.oracle.com).

3.2 Installing the Software

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

  • Java EE 8 RI or an implementation of the Java EE Connector Architecture 1.7 specification

  • Java SE 8

  • JCA 1.7 RI, which is Java EE 8 RI

  • JCA TCK version 1.7, which includes:

    • JDOM 1.0

    • Apache Commons HTTP Client 3.1

    • Apache Commons Logging 1.1.1

    • Apache Commons Codec 1.3

  • The JCA 1.7 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 JCA TCK 1.7 software.

    1. Copy or download the JCA TCK software to your local system.
      You can obtain the JCA TCK software from the Java Licensee Engineering (https://javapartner.oracle.com) Web site. The JCA TCK software is located in the Web site’s Download Center area.

    2. Use the unzip command to extract the bundle in the directory of your choice:
      unzip connectortck-x.x_dd-Mmm-YYYY.zip
      This creates the TCK directory. The TCK is the test suite home, <TS_HOME>.

  3. Install the Java EE 8 RI software, if it is not already installed.
    This software can be obtained from the Java Licensee Engineering Web site. Refer to any installation instructions that accompany the software for additional information.

  4. Install the JCA 1.7 Reference Implementation.
    The Reference Implementation is used to validate your initial configuration and setup of the JCA TCK 1.7 tests, which are explained further in Chapter 4, "Setup and Configuration."
    The JCA RI can be obtained from Java Licensee Engineering (https://javapartner.oracle.com).

  5. Install the JCA Vendor Implementation (VI) to be tested.
    Follow the installation instructions for the particular VI under test.
