4.4 Custom Configuration Handlers
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Configuration handlers are used to configure and unconfigure a
{TechnologyShortName} {TechnologyVersion} implementation during the
certification process. These are similar to deployment handlers but
used for configuration. A configuration handler is an Ant build file
that contains at least the required targets listed below:

* `config.vi` - to configure the vendor implementation
* `clean.vi` - to unconfigure the vendor implementation

These targets are called from the `<TS_HOME>/bin/build.xml` file and
call down into the implementation-specific configuration handlers.

To provide your own configuration handler, create a config.vi.xml file
with the necessary configuration steps for your implementation and place
the file under the `<TS_HOME>/bin/xml/impl/<your_impl>` directory.

For more information, you may wish to view `<TS_HOME>/bin/xml/impl/glassfish/config.vi.xml`,
the configuration file for Jakarta EE {JakartaEEVersion} Compatible Implementation, Eclipse GlassFish.

[[GBFWG]][[custom-deployment-handlers]]

4.5 Custom Deployment Handlers
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Deployment handlers are used to deploy and undeploy the WAR files that
contain the tests to be run during the certification process. A deployment
handler is an Ant build file that contains at least the required targets
listed in the table below.

The {TechnologyShortName} TCK provides these deployment handlers:

* `<TS_HOME>/bin/xml/impl/none/deploy.xml`
* `<TS_HOME>/bin/xml/impl/glassfish/deploy.xml`
* `<TS_HOME>/bin/xml/impl/tomcat/deploy.xml`

The `deploy.xml` files in each of these directories are used to control
deployment to a specific container (no deployment, deployment to
the Eclipse GlassFish Web container, deployment to the Tomcat Web container)
denoted by the name of the directory in which each `deploy.xml` file
resides. The primary `build.xml` file in the `<TS_HOME>/bin` directory
has a target to invoke any of the required targets (`-deploy`, `-undeploy`,
`-deploy.all`, `-undeploy.all`).

[[GBFVA]][[create-custom-deployment-handler]]

4.5.1 To Create a Custom Deployment Handler
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

To deploy tests to another {TechnologyShortName} implementation, you
must create a custom handler.

1. Create a new directory in the `<TS_HOME>/bin/xml/impl` directory tree.
For example, create the `<TS_HOME>/bin/xml/impl/my_deployment_handler` directory.
Replace my_deployment_handler with the value of the impl.vi
property that you set in Step 5 of the configuration procedure
described in Section 4.2, "Configuring Your Environment to Repackage
and Run the TCK Against the Vendor Implementation".

2. Copy the deploy.xml file from the `<TS_HOME>/bin/xml/impl/none`
directory to the directory that you created.

3. Modify the required targets in the `deploy.xml` file. This is what
the `deploy.xml` file for the "none" deployment handler looks like.

+
[source,oac_no_warn]
----
<project name="No-op Deployment" default="deploy">
<!-- No-op deployment target -->
<target name="-deploy">
<echo message="No deploy target implemented for this deliverable"/>
</target>
<target name="-undeploy">
<echo message="No undeploy target implemented for this deliverable"/>
</target>
<target name="-deploy.all">
<echo message="No deploy target implemented for this deliverable"/>
</target>
<target name="-undeploy.all">
<echo message="No undeploy target implemented for this deliverable"/>
</target>
</project>
----
+
Although this example just echoes messages, it does include the four
required Ant targets (`-deploy`, `-undeploy`, `-deploy.all`, `-undeploy.all`)
that your custom `deploy.xml` file must contain. With this as your
starting point, look at the required targets in the `deploy.xml` files
in the Tomcat and Eclipse Glassfish directories for guidance as you create
the same targets for the Web container in which you will run your
implementation of {TechnologyShortName}.

The following Ant targets can be called from anywhere under the
`<TS_HOME>/src` directory:

* `deploy`
* `undeploy`
* `deploy.all`
* `undeploy.all`

The `deploy.all` and `undeploy.all` targets can also be called from the
`<TS_HOME>/bin` directory.

[NOTE]
=======================================================================
The targets in the `deploy.xml` file are never called directly.
They are called indirectly by the targets listed above.

4.6 Using the JavaTest Harness Software
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

There are two general ways to run the {TechnologyShortName} TCK test
suite using the JavaTest harness software:

* Through the JavaTest GUI; if using this method, please continue on to
link:#GBFWG[Section 4.7, "Using the JavaTest Harness Configuration
GUI."]
* In JavaTest batch mode, from the command line in your shell
environment; if using this method, please proceed directly to
link:using.html#GBFWO[Chapter 5, "Executing Tests."]

[[GBFWG]][[using-the-javatest-harness-configuration-gui]]

4.7 Using the JavaTest Harness Configuration GUI
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You can use the JavaTest harness GUI to modify general test settings and
to quickly get started with the default {TechnologyShortName} TCK test
environment. This section covers the following topics:

* link:#GBFVA[Configuration GUI Overview]
* link:#GBFVD[Starting the Configuration GUI]
* link:#GBFVX[To Configure the JavaTest Harness to Run the
{TechnologyShortName} TCK Tests]
* link:#GBFUU[Modifying the Default Test Configuration]


[NOTE]
=======================================================================
It is only necessary to proceed with this section if you want to run the
JavaTest harness in GUI mode. If you plan to run the JavaTest harness in
command-line mode, skip the remainder of this chapter, and continue with
link:using.html#GBFWO[Chapter 5, "Executing Tests."]
=======================================================================


[[GBFVA]][[configuration-gui-overview]]

4.7.1 Configuration GUI Overview
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

In order for the JavaTest harness to execute the test suite, it requires
information about how your computing environment is configured. The
JavaTest harness requires two types of configuration information:

* Test environment: This is data used by the tests. For example, the
path to the Java runtime, how to start the product being tested, network
resources, and other information required by the tests in order to run.
This information does not change frequently and usually stays constant
from test run to test run.
* Test parameters: This is information used by the JavaTest harness to
run the tests. Test parameters are values used by the JavaTest harness
that determine which tests in the test suite are run, how the tests
should be run, and where the test reports are stored. This information
often changes from test run to test run.

The first time you run the JavaTest harness software, you are asked to
specify the test suite and work directory that you want to use. (These
parameters can be changed later from within the JavaTest harness GUI.)

Once the JavaTest harness GUI is displayed, whenever you choose Start,
then Run Tests to begin a test run, the JavaTest harness determines
whether all of the required configuration information has been supplied:

* If the test environment and parameters have been completely
configured, the test run starts immediately.
* If any required configuration information is missing, the
configuration editor displays a series of questions asking you the
necessary information. This is called the configuration interview. When
you have entered the configuration data, you are asked if you wish to
proceed with running the test.

[[GBFVD]][[starting-the-configuration-gui]]

4.7.2 Starting the Configuration GUI
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Before you start the JavaTest harness software, you must have a valid
test suite and Java SE {SEversion} installed on your system.

The {TechnologyShortName} TCK includes an Ant script that is used to execute the
JavaTest harness from the `<TS_HOME>` directory. Using this Ant script
to start the JavaTest harness is part of the procedure described in
link:#GBFVX[Section 4.7.3, "To Configure the JavaTest Harness to Run the
TCK Tests."]

When you execute the JavaTest harness software for the first time, the
JavaTest harness displays a Welcome dialog box that guides you through
the initial startup configuration.

* If it is able to open a test suite, the JavaTest harness displays a
Welcome to JavaTest dialog box that guides you through the process of
either opening an existing work directory or creating a new work
directory as described in the JavaTest online help.
* If the JavaTest harness is unable to open a test suite, it displays a
Welcome to JavaTest dialog box that guides you through the process of
opening both a test suite and a work directory as described in the
JavaTest documentation.

After you specify a work directory, you can use the Test Manager to
configure and run tests as described in link:#GBFVX[Section 4.7.3, "To
Configure the JavaTest Harness to Run the TCK Tests."]

[[GBFVX]][[to-configure-the-javatest-harness-to-run-the-tck-tests]]

4.7.3 To Configure the JavaTest Harness to Run the TCK Tests
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The answers you give to some of the configuration interview questions
are specific to your site. For example, the name of the host on which
the JavaTest harness is running. Other configuration parameters can be
set however you wish. For example, where you want test report files to
be stored.

Note that you only need to complete all these steps the first time you
start the JavaTest test harness. After you complete these steps, you can
either run all of the tests by completing the steps in
link:using.html#GBFUZ[Section 5.1, "Starting JavaTest,"] or run a subset
of the tests by completing the steps in link:using.html#GBFWM[Section
5.2, "Running a Subset of the Tests."]

1. Change to the `<TS_HOME>/bin` directory and start the JavaTest test
harness: +
`cd <TS_HOME>/bin` +
`ant gui`
2. From the File menu, click *Open Quick Start Wizard*. +
The Welcome screen displays.
3. Select *Start a new test run*, and then click *Next*. +
You are prompted to create a new configuration or use a configuration
template.
4. Select *Create a new configuration*, and then click *Next*. +
You are prompted to select a test suite.
5. Accept the default suite (`<TS_HOME>/src`), and then click *Next*. +
You are prompted to specify a work directory to use to store your test
results.
6. Type a work directory name or use the *Browse* button to select a work
directory, and then click *Next*. +
You are prompted to start the configuration editor or start a test run.
At this point, the {TechnologyShortName} TCK is configured to run the
default test suite.
7. Deselect the *Start the configuration editor* option, and then click
*Finish*.
8. Click *Run Tests*, then click *Start*. +
The JavaTest harness starts running the tests.
9. To reconfigure the JavaTest test harness, do one of the following:
* Click *Configuration*, then click *New Configuration*.
* Click *Configuration*, then click *Change Configuration*.
10. Click *Report*, and then click *Create Report*.
11. Specify the directory in which the JavaTest test harness will write
the report, and then click *OK*. +
A report is created, and you are asked whether you want to view it.
12. Click *Yes* to view the report.

[[GBFUU]][[modifying-the-default-test-configuration]]

4.7.4 Modifying the Default Test Configuration
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The JavaTest GUI enables you to configure numerous test options. These
options are divided into two general dialog box groups:

* Group 1: Available from the JavaTest *Configure/Change Configuration*
submenus, the following options are displayed in a tabbed dialog box:

** *Tests to Run*

** *Exclude List*

** *Keywords*

** *Prior Status*

** *Test Environment*

** *Concurrency*

** *Timeout Factor*
* Group 2: Available from the JavaTest *Configure/Change
Configuration/Other Values* submenu, or by pressing `Ctrl+E`, the following
options are displayed in a paged dialog box:

** *Environment Files*

** *Test Environment*

** *Specify Tests to Run*

** *Specify an Exclude List*

Note that there is some overlap between the functions in these two
dialog boxes; for those functions use the dialog box that is most
convenient for you. Please refer to the JavaTest Harness documentation
or the online help for complete information about these various options.
====
The {TechnologyShortName} TCK is not depended on any particular build
tool to run the tests. It will be convenient and advisable to create a
Apache Maven project to setup and run the TCK.
This chapter will henceforth use instructions and steps to provide setup
with Apache Maven as a build tool.
