Installation

## 3 Installation

This chapter explains how to install the Jakarta XML RPC 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 5.1 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 XML RPC TCK tests, you must install and set up the following software components:

- A Jakarta EE 8 CI, for example Eclipse Glassfish 5.1 or, at a minimum, a Web server with a Servlet container

- Java SE 8

- A CI for XML RPC 1.1, one example is Eclipse Glassfish 5.1

- XML RPC TCK version 1.1, which includes:

  - JDOM 1.0

  - Apache Commons HTTP Client 3.1

  - Apache Commons Logging 1.1.1

  - Apache Commons Codec 1.3

  - Apache Ant 1.8.4

- The XML RPC 1.1 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 XML RPC TCK 1.1 software.

   1. Copy or download the XML RPC TCK software to your local system.
      You can obtain the XML RPC TCK software from the Jakarta EE site https://jakarta.ee/specifications/xml-rpc/1.1/.

   2. Use the `unzip` command to extract the bundle in the directory of your choice:
      `unzip jaxrpc-1_1-fr-tck.zip`
      This creates the TCK directory. The TCK is the test suite home, `<TS_HOME>`.

3. Install the Java EE 8 RI software (the servlet Web container used for running the XML RPC TCK with the XML RPC 1.1 CI), if it is not already installed.
   Download and install the Servlet Web container with the XML RPC 1.1 RI used for running the XML RPC TCK 1.1, represented by the Jakarta EE 8 CI (For example, Eclise GlassFish 5.1). You may obtain Eclipse Glassfish 5.1 from https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/ee4j.glassfish.

4. Install a XML RPC 1.1 Compatible Implementation.
   A Compatible Implementation is used to validate your initial configuration and setup of the XML RPC TCK 1.1 tests, which are explained further in Chapter 4, "Setup and Configuration."
   The Compatible Implementations for XML RPC are listed on the Jakarta EE Specifications web site: https://jakarta.ee/specifications/xml-rpc/1.1/.

5. Install a Web server on which the XML RPC TCK test applications can be published for testing the VI.

6. Install the XML RPC VI to be tested.
   Follow the installation instructions for the particular VI under test.
