Using J2EE? AVK to certify J2EE? compliance of a OSS/J Reference Implementation or any application
Step 1: Download the J2EE? AVK tool from here
J2EE? AVK usage is detailed in the following page from the java developer page.
It contains all the settings that are needed to ease the usage (integration in ant, etc).
Step 2: Successfully complete testing of your application following the criteria detailed in the Java AVK User Handbook
The Java AVK works in two stages: static verification and dynamic verification.
Step 2.1 run the static verification part.
Note that this static verification can be run at any time during your development process.
It just needs the deployable application archive as input.
Static verification checks if an application suite's deployment descriptors follow the specification, and that the suite contains no methods that are proprietary to a particular vendor. It also checks if the application code conforms to the J2EE? specification. (For example, it checks if the remote interface of an EJB contains all RMI/IIOP-compliant parameter types.) Each test references the corresponding section of the J2EE? specification.
Step 2.2 once you application run correctly, run the dynamic verification part.
Dynamic verification checks the percentage of enterprise bean component methods, web services methods, and web components that are invoked by running the application.
This step requires to deploy your application in the instrumented application server delivered within the AVK package.
Once the application server is configured and the application deployed, start your TCK against the deployed application.
When the TCK is successfully completed, stop the application server and generate the status report using the AVK tools.
Step 3: run your application in another application server.
The list of J2EE? compatible application servers is available at http://java.sun.com/j2ee/verified/compatibility/index.html
Step 4: Join the "Java powered for Enterprise" program:
Here are the steps required to obtain the Java Powered for the Enterprise brand:
- Apply to join the program. Send an email to verification-sales@sun.com. to receive the Program Checklist and Program manual.
- Send the complete Checklist to our Program Office. Upon approval from Sun, you will receive the Sun Trademark License agreement.
- Execute the Sun Trademark License for the Java Powered for the Enterprise.
- Upon receipt of the signed agreements, you will receive instructions on accessing the trademark logo and its usage guidelines.
- Sun will list your branded application on Sun's web site.
Note: This procedure certifies J2EE? application compliance. There is another procedure which certifies products as being OSS/J compliant.
