• Create a new folder to extract the contents of the JDOTCK. Hereinafter known as JDOTCK
• You must choose either to run datastore or application identity tests
• Following the type of test you've choosen fetch the files from CVS.
  • datastore identity tests, the CVS path is: JPOX/TCK/JDO 1.0/datastore
  • application identity tests, the CVS path is: JPOX/TCK/JDO 1.0/application
• Copy the fetched files to JDOTCK folder. Be sure to put the files in the right place
• Create a new file called iut.properties. This file contains the properties for connection to the datastore. e.g.

javax.jdo.PersistenceManagerFactoryClass=org.jpox.PersistenceManagerFactoryImpl
javax.jdo.option.ConnectionUserName=jdotckdatastore
javax.jdo.option.ConnectionPassword=password
javax.jdo.option.ConnectionDriverName=com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver
javax.jdo.option.ConnectionURL=jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://127.0.0.1:1433;SelectMethod=cursor
javax.jdo.option.Optimistic=true
javax.jdo.option.RetainValues=true
javax.jdo.option.NontransactionalRead=true
javax.jdo.option.Multithreaded=true
org.jpox.autoCreateTables=true
org.jpox.validateTables=false
org.jpox.validateConstraints=false	

• Create a new folder called iut_jars as JDOTCK/iut_jars
  • put the following files inside JDOTCK/iut_jars folder:
    • jpox.jar
    • jdo.jar (jdo 1.0.1)
    • bcel-5.1.jar
    • log4j-1.2.8.jar
    • jta.jar
    • xercesImpl.jar (only if needed)
    • xmlParserAPIs.jar (only if needed)
  • put also your database driver jar files inside JDOTCK/iut_jars
• The JDOTCK comes with a jdo.jar 1.0. Replace the jdo.jar (1.0) located at JDOTCK to a new one jdo.jar (1.0.1).
• Compile and enhance the files.
  • For datastore identity run:
    • ant usedatastoreidentity
    • ant
  • For application identity run:
    • ant useapplicationidentity
    • ant

To run the tests, use the two commands:

• ant runagent
• ant javatest

Inside the javatest

• create a work directory
• go to the menu + Tasks + Monitor Agent Activity
• enable the option "Listening"
• go to the menu + Window + JDO 1.0 TCK ...
• go to the menu + Run + Start
• click OK
• Now configure the test. Say no to all options, but say yes to a exclude list.
• Add an exclude list, The exclude list file is available inside the JDOTCK dir
• Add an environment file, which is also available inside the JDOTCK dir, as testsuite.jte
• Select the test environment.
• Start the tests.
