## Gaining Access to OSGi CTs
-The general process is to send a request to the jcp-open@apache.org mailing requesting access. Since redistributing the OSGi CTs is not allowed, you will need to submit an [NDA](http://www.apache.org/jcp/ApacheNDA.pdf) to be granted access to the [SVN repo|https://svn.apache.org/repos/tck/osgi-cts] containing the binaries.

## OSGi CT Overview
-The CT is delivered as two JAR files, one for the core CT and one for the compendium CT. Each JAR file is composed of several other JAR files, which are the actual compliance tests. Typically, there is one JAR per specification, except for the OSGi framework. The CT uses BND as its testing harness, which in turn uses the OSGi R4.2 framework launching and embedding API to configure, launch, and install test bundles. Each test JAR file has an associated BND file which supplies the configuration BND needs to run the associated tests.

## Modifying the BND files
Modifying the BND files is fairly straightforward. A typical BND file looks like this:

-The core CT tests the framework implementation and its related services. The compendium CT tests the various non-framework-related specifications, which are implemented as bundles. For the most part, testing a bundle is similar to testing the framework.
-Extract the compendium CT JAR file to access the individual test suites. Since most compendium service specification test suites require security, it is necessary to use a framework implementation that supports security. For the Felix framework, you will have to add the security provider to the `-runbundles` to enable security.
