This chapter explains how to install the Jakarta Annotations 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. Jakarta Annotations 2.0 is a compatible implementation which may be obtained from https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/ee4j.ca

### 3.2 Installing the Software

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

- Java SE 8 (1.8) or 11

- Apache Ant 1.10+

- A CI for Annotations 2.0, one example is Jakarta Annotations 2.0

- Annotations TCK version 2.0, which includes:

  - JDOM 1.1.3

  - Apache Commons HTTP Client 3.1

  - Apache Commons Logging 1.1.3

  - Apache Commons Codec 1.9

Follow these steps:

1. Install the Java SE 8 (1.8) or 11 software, if it is not already installed.

2. Install the Apache Ant 1.10+ software, if it is not already installed.
   Download and install Apache Ant 1.10+ software from Apache Ant Project. For complete information about Ant, refer to the extensive documentation on the Apache Ant Project site.
