This book introduces the Test Compatibility Kit (TCK) for the Jakarta Platform, Enterprise Edition 9 (Jakarta EE 9) and Jakarta Platform, Enterprise Edition 9 Web Profile (Jakarta EE 9 Web Profile), and explains how to configure and run the test suite. It also provides information for troubleshooting problems you may encounter as you run the test suite.

The Jakarta Platform, Enterprise Edition 9 Test Compatibility Kit (Jakarta EE 9 TCK) is a portable, configurable automated test suite for verifying the compatibility of an implementer’s compliance with the Jakarta EE 9 Specification (hereafter referred to as the implementer’s implementation, or VI). The Jakarta EE 9 Platform TCK uses the JavaTest harness version 5.0 to run the test suite.
