3 Installation

This chapter explains how to install the Jakarta JSON Processing 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.

Note

Although the JSON Processing 2.1 TCK is not depended on any particular build tool, it is convenient to install Apache Maven 3.6.3+ for setup and execution of tests. Any other build tools like Gradle and JUnit 5 Console Runner can also be used that is Jupiter API compatible.

3.1 Obtaining a Compatible Implementation

Each compatible implementation (CI) will provide instructions for obtaining their implementation. Eclipse Parsson 1.1.0 is a compatible implementation which may be obtained from https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/ee4j.parsson

3.2 Installing the Software

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

  • Java SE 11+

  • A CI for JSON Processing 2.1, one example is Eclipse Parsson 1.1.0

  • The JSON Processing 2.1 Vendor Implementation (VI)

  • Any Jupiter API compatible test runner (eg. Apache Maven 3.6.3+)

Follow these steps:

  1. Install the Java SE 11+ software, if it is not already installed.
    Download and install the Java SE 11+ 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 build tool that will be used to run the TCK, if it is not already installed.
    It will be convenient to use Apache Maven 3.6.3+ for running the tests. The test kit is not depended on Maven, any build tool compatible with Jupiter API is suffitient.

  3. Install the JSON Processing TCK 2.1 software.

    1. Copy or download the JSON Processing TCK software to your local system.
      You can obtain the JSON Processing TCK software from the Jakarta EE site https://jakarta.ee/specifications/jsonp/2.1/.

    2. Use the unzip command to extract the bundle in the directory of your choice:
      unzip jakarta-jsonp-tck-2.1.0.zip

  4. Install a JSON Processing 2.1 Compatible Implementation.
    A Compatible Implementation is used to validate your initial configuration and setup of the JSON Processing TCK 2.1 tests, which are explained further in Chapter 4, "Setup and Configuration."
    The Compatible Implementations for JSON Processing are listed on the Jakarta EE Specifications web site: https://jakarta.ee/specifications/jsonp/2.1/.

  5. Install the JSON Processing VI to be tested.
    Follow the installation instructions for the particular VI under test.
