-This guide describes how to install, configure, and run the
-Technology Compatibility Kit (TCK) that provides tests for
-the&#160;Portlet 1.0 Bridge for JavaServer&#8482; Faces 1.2 (Bridge
-TCK). The Bridge TCK is designed as a portable, configurable
-automated test suite for verifying the compliance of a
-licensee&#8217;s implementation of the Portlet 1.0 Bridge for
-JavaServer&#8482; Faces 1.2 Specification (hereafter referred to as
-a licensee implementation). It may also be used to verify that any
-compatible version of the bridge including the Reference
-Implementation runs correctly in a given JavaEE, Portlet container
-and Faces environment. &#160;The Bridge TCK runs as a Maven project
-located under Subversion source control in&#160; the Apache MyFaces
-PortletBridge project. &#160;It relies on JUnit and Selenium to
-provide the necessary test harness and reporting tools to&#160;run
-the test suite.<br />
-<br />
-<h2>Who Should Use This Book</h2>
-This guide is for licensees of Oracle Corporation's Portlet 1.0
-Bridge for JavaServer&#8482; Faces 1.2 technology to assist them in
-running the test suite that verifies compliance of their<br />

-This chapter provides an overview of the principles that apply
-generally to all Technology Compatibility Kits (TCKs) and describes
-the Portlet 1.0 Bridge for JavaServer&#8482; Faces 1.2<br />
-Compatibility Kit (Bridge TCK). It also includes a listing of what
-is needed to get up and running with the Bridge TCK.<br />
-<h2>Compatibility Testing</h2>
-Compatibility testing differs from traditional product testing in a
-number of ways. The focus of compatibility testing is to test those
-features and areas of an implementation that are likely to differ
-across&#160;implementations. It attempts to ensure that users of
-any given implementation will receive the same results regardless
-of the underlying implementation strategy. Compatibility test
-development for a given feature relies on a complete specification
-and reference implementation for that feature. Compatibility
-testing is not primarily concerned with robustness, performance, or
-ease of use.<br />
-<br />
-<h2>Why Compatibility Testing is Important</h2>
-Java&#8482; platform compatibility is important to different groups
-involved with Java technologies for different reasons:<br />
-<ul>
-<li>Compatibility testing is the means by which Sun Microsystems
-ensures that the Java platform does not become fragmented as it is
-ported to different operating systems and hardware
-environments.</li>
-<li>Compatibility testing benefits developers working in the Java
-programming language, allowing them to write applications once and
-then to deploy them across heterogeneous computing environments
-without porting.</li>
-<li>Compatibility testing allows application users to obtain
-applications from disparate sources and deploy them with
-confidence.</li>
-<li>Compatibility testing benefits Java platform implementors by
-ensuring a level playing field for all Java platform ports.</li>
-</ul>
-<h2>TCK Compatibility Rules</h2>
-Compatibility criteria for all technology implementations are
-embodied in the TCK Compatibility Rules that apply to a specified
-technology. Each TCK tests for adherence to these Rules as
-described in Chapter 2, &#8220;Procedure for Portlet 1.0 Bridge for
-JavaServer&#8482; Faces 1.2 Certification.&#8221;<br />
-<br />
-<h2>TCK Overview</h2>
-A TCK is a set of tools and tests used to verify that a
-licensee&#8217;s implementation of Oracle Corporation's&#160;
-Portlet 1.0 Bridge for JavaServer&#8482; Faces 1.2 technology
-conforms to the applicable<br />
-specification. All tests in the TCK are based on the written
-specifications for the Java platform. Compatibility testing is a
-means of ensuring correctness, completeness, and consistency across
-all implementations. The set of tests included with each TCK is
-called the &#8220;test suite.&#8221; All tests in the Bridge
-TCK&#8217;s test suite are self-checking and do not require tester
-interaction. Most<br />
-tests return either a Pass or Fail status. For a given
-licensee&#8217;s implementation to be certified, all of the
-required tests must pass. The definition of required tests will
-change over time. Before your final<br />
-certification test pass, be sure to download the latest Excludes
-File for the TCK you are using from the TCK site
-(http://wiki.apache.org/myfaces/PortletBridge).<br />
-<br />
-<h2>Java Community Process (JCP) Program and Compatibility
-Testing</h2>
-The Java Community Process(SM) (JCP(SM)) program is the
-formalization of the open process that Sun Microsystems, Inc. has
-been using since 1995 to develop and<br />
-revise Java technology specifications in cooperation with the
-international Java community. The JCP program specifies that the
-following three major components must be included as deliverables
-in a final Java technology release under the direction of the
-responsible Expert Group:<br />
-<ul>
-<li>Technology Specification</li>
-<li>Reference Implementation</li>
-<li>Technology Compatibility Kit (TCK)</li>
-</ul>
-For further information on the JCP program see this URL:

-<h2>The Bridge TCK</h2>
-The Bridge TCK 1.0 is designed as a portable, configurable,
-automated test suite for verifying the compliance of a
-licensee&#8217;s implementation with Oracle Corporation's<br />
-Portlet 1.0 Bridge for JavaServer&#8482; Faces 1.2
-specification.<br />
-<br />
-<h2>Bridge TCK Specifications and Requirements</h2>
-This section lists the applicable requirements and
-specifications.<br />
-&#8226; Specification Requirements &#8211; Software requirements
-for a Bridge<br />
-implementation are described in detail in the&#160;Portlet 1.0
-Bridge for JavaServer&#8482; Faces 1.2 Specification.<br />
-Links to the JSR 301 specification and other product information
-can be found at http://www.jcp.org/en/jsr/detail?id=301.<br />
-&#8226; Reference Implementation &#8211; The designated Reference
-Implementation for<br />
-conformance testing of implementations based upon JSR 301
-Specification<br />
-is Apache Open Source Project, MyFaces Portlet Bridge 1.0
-(http://myfaces.apache.org/portlet-bridge/1.0/index.html).<br />
-<br />
-<h2>The Bridge TCK</h2>
-The Bridge TCK is composed of :<br />
-<ul>
-<li>a teststuite, which is a collection of tests and supplemental
-files that provide data for the automatic running of tests through
-the test harness.</li>
-<li>an exclude list, which provides a list of tests that your
-implementation is not required to pass.</li>
-<li>TCK documentation.</li>
-<li>a set of maven .pom files providing the necessary instructions
-for building the test stuite for your test environment and running
-the test harness to verify your environment.</li>
-</ul>
-The Bridge TCK 1.0 is a maven project maintained in Subversion
-source control as part of the Apache MyFaces Portlet Bridge
-project. &#160;The TCK test stuite is built and run using maven
-commands. &#160;The test harness, used to automate executing the
-TCK tests uses JUnit and Selenium. &#160;Maven automatically
-accesses the necessary versions and runs them during the
-appropriate phase of the lifecycle. More information can be found
-on the web:<br />
-<ul>
-<li>Maven: consult the Apache Maven website
-(http://maven.apache.org/).</li>
-<li>Subversion: consult the Apache Subversion website
-(http://subversion.apache.org/).</li>
-<li>JUnit: consult the JUnit website (http://www.junit.org/).</li>
-<li>Selenium: consult the Selenium website
-(http://seleniumhq.org/)</li>
-</ul>
-<br />
-<h3><a name="Typical_Usage" id="Typical_Usage"></a>Typical
-Usage</h3>
-Each TCK test is implemented in its own specific portlet built from
-the test suite source. &#160;Most test portlets are grouped into a
-single portlet application. &#160;However, because&#160;one test
-involves varying values in the application's web.xml, the entire
-test suite is comprised of two portlet applications: &#160;a main
-testsuite portlet application containing most of the test portlets,
-and an additional testsuite portlet application containing an
-individual test portlet with a distinct (web.xml) configuration.
-&#160;Each of these test suite portlet applications is built using
-a maven command. &#160;As described in detail later, the command
-used to generate the war files includes flexibility for:<br />
-<ul>
-<li>packaging a specific&#160;Faces 1.2 implementation type and
-version (e.g. Mojarra or MyFaces) into the war. &#160;This is used
-in situations where your application server isn't a fully compliant
-JavaEE 5 server (i.e. one that includes&#160;Faces 1.2)</li>
-<li>packaging your bridge implementaion into the war. &#160;This is
-used if your bridge isn't already deployed for use in the
-application server as part of the portal/portlet container
-deployment.</li>
-<li>including a proper deployment descriptor for deploying the
-applications in a pluto 1.0 or pluto 2.0 environment.</li>
-</ul>
-Once generated, the testsuite wars are deployed to the host
-application server. &#160;The test server(s) must not only contain
-a Portlet 1.0 (compatible) container to host the portlet
-application but must also include a technology for accessing and
-executing each portlet in these applications by URL.
-&#160;Typically, this involves a portal application hosting a set
-of portal pages where each page contains a distinct test
-portlet.<br />
-<br />
-<div style="margin-left: 40px;">Note: &#160;The test harness
-requires a distinct URL to execute each test. &#160;In most cases
-this translates into placing each test portlet on a distinct
-page.</div>
-<br />
-Once the test applications are deployed and made accesible by URL,
-the TCK is executed by running a second maven command. &#160;This
-command reads a test file containing the test URLs (provided by
-you) and executes each test in the file via the JUnit/Selenium
-harness. &#160;Upon completion a report is generated providing
-summary and detailed information of the test results.<br />
-<br />
-<div style="margin-left: 40px;">Note: &#160;Prior to running the
-automated test harness you are encouraged to verify your
-portal/test suite configuration by invoking some of the test pages
-directly from a browser. &#160;Thes tests are designed to ouput
-valid HTML indicating the test status along with the internal tags
-used by the harness.</div>
-<h3>TCK Compatibility Test Suite</h3>
-The test suite is the collection of tests used by the test harness
-to test the compliance of a given Bridge in a given runtime
-environment. The tests are designed to verify that a
-licensee&#8217;s implementation of the technology complies with the
-appropriate specification. The individual tests correspond to
-assertions of the specification. The descriptions of tests that
-make up the TCK compatibility test suite are<br />
-included in the projects root directory in a file called "TCK
-Tests.html".<br />
-<br />
-The Bridge TCK 1.0 test suite comprises two test categories:<br />
-<ul>
-<li>A signature test that checks that&#160;the public APIs are
-supported in the implementation that is being tested.</li>
-<li>Functional tests that check for behavior correctness for all
-the (testable) assertations in the specification .</li>
-</ul>
-<h3>Exclude Lists</h3>
-Each version of a TCK includes an Exclude List file. This file
-identifies tests which do not have to be run as their results may
-not be repeatable in all environments. Whenever tests are run, the
-test harness automatically excludes any test on the Exclude List
-from being executed.<br />
-<br />
-A licensee is not required to pass any test&#8212;or even run any
-test&#8212;on the Exclude List. &#160;However, as many of these
-tests are excluded because of specific environmental limitations,
-licensee's are encouraged to review the comments in the excluded
-file to determine if the test can be successfully run in he or her
-environment, and if so, to include the test to verify proper
-behavior.<br />
-<br />
-<br />
-<div style="margin-left: 40px;">Note: Licensees are not permitted
-to alter or modify the Exclude Lists. &#160;Changes to an Exclude
-List can only be made by using the procedure described in
-&#8220;Portlet Test Appeals Process&#8221;.<br /></div>
-<br />

-<h2>Portlet Test Appeals Process</h2>
-Oracle Corportation has a well established process for managing
-challenges to its Portlet 1.0 Bridge Test Suite and plans to
-continue using a similar process in the future. Oracle Corporation,
-as Maintenance Lead, will authorize representatives from its
-engineering team to be the point of contact for all test
-challenges.<br />
-<br />
-<h3>Process Used to Manage Challenges to Bridge Tests:</h3>
-The following process will be used to manage challenges to Portlet
-1.0 Bridge tests:
-<ol>
-<li>Who can make challenges to the&#160;&#160;Portlet 1.0 Bridge
-tests?<br />
-<br />
-Only licensees of the&#160;Portlet 1.0 Bridge TCK.<br />
-<br /></li>
-<li>What challenges to the Portlet 1.0 Bridge tests may be
-submitted?<br />
-<br />
-Individual (or related) tests may be challenged for reasons such
-as:<br />
-<ul>
-<li>Test is buggy (i.e., program logic errors).</li>
-<li>Specification item covered by the test is ambiguous.</li>
-<li>Test does not match the specification.</li>
-<li>Test assumes unreasonable hardware and/or software
-requirements.<br />
-<br /></li>
-</ul>
-</li>
-<li>How are challenges submitted?<br />
-<br />
-To the public comment list for JSR 301
-(jsr-301-public@jcp.org).<br />
-Appeals must be in writing as described in the Test Challenge form
-below.<br />
-<br /></li>
-<li>How and by whom are challenges addressed?<br />
-<br />
-The Oracle engineer who is the contact point coordinates the review
-and decisions made by test development and specification
-development engineers.<br />
-<br />
-See the Portlet 1.0 Bridge TCK Test Appeals Steps below.<br />
-<br /></li>
-<li>How are approved changes to the&#160;Portlet 1.0 Bridge tests
-managed?<br />
-<br />
-All tests found to be invalid are placed on the Exclude List for
-that version of the Portlet 1.0 Bridge TCK within 1 business day.
-An announcement is sent to the&#160;jsr-301-public@jcp.org
-describing the change and where/how to acquire it.<br />
-<br />
-Oracle as Maintenance Lead, has the option of creating an
-alternative test to address any challenge. Alternative tests (and
-criteria for their use) will be updated in the SVN source
-repository. Note that passing an alternative test is deemed
-equivalent with passing the original test.</li>
-</ol>
-<h3>Portlet TCK Test Appeals Steps</h3>
-<ol>
-<li>Portlet licensee writes a test challenge to the Maintenance
-Lead contesting the validity of one or a related set of Portlet
-tests.<br />
-<br />
-A detailed justification for why each test should be invalidated
-must be included with the challenge as described by the Test
-Challenge form below.<br />
-<br /></li>
-<li>The Maintenance Lead evaluates the challenge.<br />
-<br />
-If the appeal is incomplete or unclear, it is returned to the
-submitting licensee for correction. If all is in order, the
-Maintenance Lead will check with the test developers to review the
-purpose and validity of the test before writing a response. The
-Maintenance Lead will attempt to complete the response within 5
-business days. If the challenge is similar to a previously rejected
-test challenge (i.e., same test and justification), the Maintenance
-Lead will send the previous response to the licensee.<br />
-<br /></li>
-<li>The challenge and any supporting materials from test developers
-is sent to the specification engineers for evaluation.<br />
-<br />
-A decision of test validity or invalidity is normally made within
-15 working days of receipt of the challenge. All decisions will be
-documented with an explanation of why test validity was maintained
-or rejected.<br />
-<br /></li>
-<li>The licensee is informed of the decision and proceeds
-accordingly.<br />
-<br />
-If the test challenge is approved and one or more tests are
-invalidated, the Maintenance Lead places the tests on the Exclude
-List for that version of the Portlet (effectively removing the
-test(s) from the Test Suite). All tests placed on the Exclude List
-will have a JIRA bug report written to document the decision and
-made available to all through the JIRA bug reporting database on
-the Apache web site. If the test is valid but difficult to pass due
-to hardware or operating system limitations, the Maintenance Lead
-may choose to provide an alternate test to use in place of the
-original test (all alternate tests are made available to the
-licensee community).<br />
-<br /></li>
-<li>If the test challenge is rejected, the licensee may choose to
-escalate the decision to the Executive Committee (EC), however, it
-is expected that the licensee would continue to work with the
-Maintenance Lead to resolve the issue and only involve the EC as a
-last resort.</li>

-This chapter lists the required hardware configurations and
-prerequisite software that must be present before you can run the
-Bridge TCK.<br />
-<br />
-<h2>Hardware Requirements</h2>
-You can run the Portlet TCK software on compatible Java&#8482;
-platforms on both Sun workstations and on personal computers. The
-following section lists the hardware requirements for both the TCK
-and the reference implementation. Hardware requirements for other
-implementations will vary.<br />

-<br />
-<br />
-<h2>Installing the Software</h2>
-<ol>
-<li>Install the JavaEE&#8482; 5 Platform, JDK: Version 1.5
-(any)<br />
-Download the&#160; JavaEE&#8482; 5 Platform, JDK software from the
-Java Software web site and install. See the installation
-instructions that accompany the software for additional
-information.</li>
-<li>Install Maven</li>
-<li>Install Subversion</li>
-<li>Install an application server. &#160;</li>
-<li>Install a Portlet 1.0-compliant portlet container, such as the
-reference implementation done as an Apache Open Source Project,
-Pluto 1.0 or Pluto 2.0.<br />
-If the portlet container software doesn't come configured with
-consumer portal software that is used as the application that
-exposes portlets via page (resource) URLs, then also install such
-consumer software.<br />
-<br />
-Verify your installation by creating and accessing a page with a
-portlet on it.</li>
-<li>If the application server you are using isn't a fully compliant
-JavaEE server (i.e. it doesn't contain a Faces implementation)
-there is no need to download/install your own version. &#160;You
-will be able to leverage Maven when it builds the TCK test suite
-wars to package/bundle the Faces version/impl of your choice
-directly into the war (as long as the version is available in an
-external&#160; Maven respository &#160;-- which is the case for
-both Mojarra and MyFaces).</li>
-<li>Do a Subversion checkout of the TCK project in a working
-directory of your choice:<br />
-<span style="font-family: monospace; font-weight: bold;">cd
-\myTCK</span><br />
-<span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: monospace;">svn

-The three <span style="font-weight: bold;">render-policy</span>
-subdirectories build distinct web applications each of which
-represent the same (render-policy) test but with a distinct
-configuration. &#160;However because the render-policy test is an
-excluded test, the TCK build commands (are commented out and) do
-not build or run these test applications. &#160;To manually run
-these tests, if your environment can support them, you will need to
-uncomment out some lines in the root project pom.xml. &#160;See the

-<h3>Publish your Bridge to the (local) Maven repository</h3>
-Because the TCK is controlled by running Maven, prior to building
-and running the Bridge TCK you need to have published your Bridge
-implementation to a maven repository. &#160;If the one you want to
-test isn't already in an (accessible) external repository, then you
-need to publish it to your local repository. &#160;It is assumed
-your bridge implementation is contained in two jars, one containing
-the required implementations for the public/specified API
-interfaces and classes corresponding to the JavaDoc included with
-the specification and one containing your vendor specific bridge
-implementation. Both jars are published using&#160;the following
-Maven commands:<br />

-<br />
-For example: &#160;If I wanted to publish Oracle's bridge to my
-local&#160;repository using a maven groupid of
-oracle.portlet.bridge I might use:<br />
-<div style="margin-left: 40px;"><span style=

--DgroupId=oracle.portlet.bridge -DartifactId=bridge-api
--Dversion=1.0.0 -Dpackaging=jar

--Durl=file://"c:\Documents and
-Settings\myloginname\.m2"</span><br />
-<br />
-<span style="font-family: monospace;">mvn deploy:deploy-file
--DgroupId=oracle.portlet.bridge -DartifactId=bridge-impl
--Dversion=1.0.0 -Dpackaging=jar
--Dfile=c:\bridge\oracle\portlet-bridge-impl-1.0.0.jar
--Durl=file://"c:\Documents and
-Settings\myloginname\.m2"</span></div>
-&#160;<br />
-<br />
-<h3>Generate the TCK TestSuite Portlet Applications (.wars)</h3>
-The TCK TestSuite Portlet Application .wars are built using a Maven
-command. &#160;Two test applications are built:&#160;<font size=
-"3">portlet-bridge-tck-main-jsr301-1.0.0</font> is generated in
-\portlet-bridge-tck-main\target while
-portlet-bridge-tck-section3-2-lifecycle-set-<font size=
-"3">jsr301-1.0.0</font>.war is generated in
-\portlet-bridge-tck-section3-2-lifecycle-set\target.<br />
-<h4>Maven command used when the Bridge and Faces are already
-deployed in the Test AppServer</h4>
-The following command will build the two test war files without
-packaging either the Bridge jars or the Faces jars into these wars.
-&#160;(i.e. use this command if the&#160;Bridge and Faces software
-is already installed/available in your test application
-server.<br />
-<br />

-<span style=
-"font-family: monospace;">-Dportlet-bridge.version=1.0.0</span></div>
-<br />
-<br />
-<h4>Maven command which additionally includes JSF in generated
-wars.</h4>
-The following command will build the two test war files including
-both the JSF jars and the Bridge jars.<br />
-<br />
-<div style="margin-left: 40px;"><span style=
-"font-family: monospace;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">mvn
-clean install -Dtck.generate-war -DincludeJSF=[mojarra|myfaces]
--DincludeBridge -Dportlet-bridge.groupId=</span>&lt;<span style=
-"font-style: italic;">your bridge groupId</span>&gt;&#160;
-<span style=
-"font-weight: bold;">-Dportlet-bridge.api.artifactId=</span>&lt;<span style="font-style: italic;">your
-artifactId for the bridge api</span>&gt; </span><span style=
-"font-family: monospace;"><span style=
-"font-weight: bold;">-Dportlet-bridge.impl.artifactId=</span>&lt;<span style="font-style: italic;">your

-<span style="font-family: monospace;"><span style=
-"font-weight: bold;">-Dportlet-bridge.version=</span>&lt;<span style="font-style: italic;">your
-version number</span>&gt;</span></div>
-<br />
-For example to include the Mojarra JSF jars in your wars:<br />
-<div style="margin-left: 40px;"><span style=
-"font-family: monospace;">mvn clean install -Dtck.generate-war
--DincludeJSF=mojarra -DincludeBridge
--Dportlet-bridge.groupId=</span><span style=
-"font-family: monospace;">oracle.portlet.bridge</span><span style=
-"font-family: monospace;">&#160;
--Dportlet-bridge.api.artifactId=</span><span style=

-<span style=
-"font-family: monospace;">-Dportlet-bridge.version=1.0.0</span></div>
-<br />
-Or to include the MyFaces JSF jars in your wars:<br />
-<div style="margin-left: 40px;"><span style=
-"font-family: monospace;">mvn clean install -Dtck.generate-war
--DincludeJSF=myfaces -DincludeBridge
--Dportlet-bridge.groupId=</span><span style=
-"font-family: monospace;">oracle.portlet.bridge</span><span style=
-"font-family: monospace;">&#160;
--Dportlet-bridge.api.artifactId=</span><span style=
-"font-family: monospace;">bridge-api</span> <span style=
-"font-family: monospace;">-Dportlet-bridge.api.artifactId=</span><span style="font-family: monospace;">bridge-impl</span>
-<span style=
-"font-family: monospace;">-Dportlet-bridge.version=1.0.0</span></div>
-<br />
-Note: &#160;Each of the above commands includes the default version
-of either Mojarra or MyFaces in the resulting wars. &#160;The
-default version is controlled by the the Maven poroperty
-mojarra.version or myfaces.version. &#160;Currently these are the
-minimum versions demanded by the specification: 1.2_03 and 1.2.2,
-respectively. &#160;To override these with a later version include
--Dmojarra.version or -Dmyfaces.version set to the intended version
-in the above command line.<br />
-<br />
-<h3>Configure Test Server</h3>
-<br />
-Once the test applications have been built, deploy them to the test
-server. &#160;Once deployed, expose each test via a distinct
-browser accessible URL. &#160;I.e. place each portlet on a separate
-portal page. &#160;At this point you should be able to verify your
-deployment/setup by running test(s) manually by accessing the
-specific portal pages. &#160;<br />
-<br />
-<h3>Run the TestHarness to Execute the TCK</h3>
-The TestHarness runs the TCK by processing a test description file.
-&#160;The test description file is an XML file called test.xml.
-&#160;It contains one entry for each test the harness is to run.
-&#160;The XML syntax for a test description has the form:<br />
-<div style="margin-left: 40px;">
-<pre>
-&lt;entry key="<span style=
-"font-style: italic;">testURL</span>"&gt;<span style=
-"font-style: italic;">testName</span>&lt;/entry&gt;
-</pre></div>
-<br />
-where <span style="font-style: italic;">testURL</span> is the full
-URL path to the (page containing the) test and <span style=
-"font-style: italic;">testName</span> is the short name of the
-test. &#160;A test's short name is derived from the test's portlet
-name. &#160;A test's portlet name has the form: <span style=
-"font-style: italic;">SpecificationSection</span>-<span style=
-"font-style: italic;">Test(short)Name</span>-portlet.<br />
-<br />
-<h4>Generating the Test Description File</h4>
-Prior to running the TestHarness you will need to
-configure/generate an appropriate version of this test.xml for your
-specific configuration. &#160;Though the project contains a
-pre-generated template of the test.xml file
-(src\test\resources\test.xml) its best to generate your own
-template file to ensure absolute consistency with the current
-verion of the TCK. &#160;The following command will generate a
-template test.xml.<br />
-<br />
-<div style="margin-left: 40px;"><span style=
-"font-weight: bold;">mvn generate-test-resources
--Dtck.external-server=generate-test-file-template</span></div>
-<br />
-The command uses a stylesheet included in the TCK src directory to
-transform the portlet.xml for the main Test App into a test.xml
-template (plus its adds the additional test in the other Test app).
-&#160;One test.xml entry is created for each portlet in the
-portlet.xml.&#160;The resulting test.xml will be located in the
-<span style=
-"font-weight: bold;">/</span>portlet-bridge-tck-client/target and
-contain N test entries&#160; in the form &lt;entry
-key="page-servlet-path"&gt;XXXTestname&lt;/entry&gt; where
-XXXTestname varies for each test name that is to be run. &#160;To
-transform this template into one that works for your server, merely
-replace the "page-servlet-path" value in each entry with the
-appropriate URL to the page containing the specific test named by
-XXXTestname. &#160;For example in a Pluto environment you might end
-up with the following entry:<br />
-<div style="margin-left: 40px;">
-<pre>
-&lt;entry key="pluto/portal/TestPage001"&gt;bridgeVersionTest&lt;/entry&gt;
-</pre></div>
-<br />
-Alternatively you can write an xsl script to transform this file
-and specify it as an alternative on the command line:<br />
-<div style="margin-left: 40px;">
-<div style="margin-left: 40px;"><span style=
-"font-weight: bold;">mvn generate-test-resources
--Dtck.external-server=generate-test-file-template
--Dbridge.tck.stylesheet=<span style=
-"font-style: italic;">/pathtostylsheet/yoursytlesheet.xsl</span></span></div>
-</div>
-<br />
-Note: because using the above command(s) utilizes Maven, any
-following Maven command that cleans the project (includes
-<span style="font-weight: bold;">clean</span> in its command line)
-will delete all the project's <span style=
-"font-weight: bold;">target</span> directories including the one
-containing this generated <span style=
-"font-weight: bold;">test.xml</span> file. &#160;As one commonly
-only needs to generate this file once, after it has been generated
-it is recommended you move this file to a location outside the
-target directory. &#160;For example merely move it to <span style=
-"font-weight: bold;">TCK_PROJECT_HOME/</span><span style=
-"font-weight: bold;">portlet-bridge-tck-client.</span><br />
-<h4>Configuring a login file</h4>
-As most portals require user authentication to access pages, in
-addition to configuring a test description file, its (often)
-necessary to also create and configure a <span style=
-"font-weight: bold;">login.properties</span> file so the harness
-can properly authenticate itself when challenged. &#160;The
-TestHarness, as its running Selenium, handles authentication as it
-does all page requests, it looks for specific named fields/buttons
-in the page response to determine what it should do/send in the
-next request. &#160;The <span style=
-"font-weight: bold;">login.properties</span> file therefore
-contains the name/value pairs of the form fields and button for the
-portal's login page.&#160; I.e. the&#160;<span style=
-"font-weight: bold;">login.properties</span> file has the
-form:<br />
-<div style="margin-left: 40px;"><span style=
-"font-style: italic;">field1Id</span>=field1Value<br />
-<span style="font-style: italic;">field2Id</span>-field2Value<br />
-<span style="font-style: italic;">SubmitButtonId</span></div>
-<br />
-Note: &#160;input fields are donoted as name/value pairs while the
-submit button is represented by only its name (id).<br />
-<br />
-For example the login.properties file for Pluto is:<br />
-<div style="margin-left: 40px;">j_username=pluto<br />
-j_password=pluto<br />
-j_login</div>
-<br />
-In every request sent by the TestHarness the harness looks at the
-response and if the first field from the login.properties file is
-present it sets each of the fields identified in the
-login.properties file with their associated value and submits the
-form (via the indicated submit button).<br />
-<br />
-If your test server will present a login screen to the TestHarness
-when it executes page requests from the <span style=
-"font-weight: bold;">test.xml</span> file, create a <span style=
-"font-weight: bold;">login.properties</span> file with the
-appropriate information using the above syntax. &#160;It is
-recommended you locate this file in the same location as the
-<span style="font-weight: bold;">test.xml</span> file.<br />
-<h4>Running the TestHarness</h4>
-After properly configuring and deploying the TCK tests to your test
-server and creating an appropriate <span style=
-"font-weight: bold;">test.xml</span> and <span style=
-"font-weight: bold;">login.properites</span> (if necessary) file,
-run the TestHarness to execute the tests&#160;and generate the test
-reports by using the following command:<br />
-<br />
-<div style="margin-left: 40px;"><span style=
-"font-weight: bold;">mvn&#160;</span><tt><span style=
-"font-weight: bold;">surefire-report:report
--Dtck.external-server=run-test
--Dbridge.tck.test.file=</span>&lt;<span style=
-"font-style: italic;">path to test.xml</span>&gt; <span style=
-"font-weight: bold;">-Dbridge.tck.test.host=</span>&lt;<span style=
-"font-style: italic;">host name</span>&gt; <span style=
-"font-weight: bold;">-Dbridge.tck.test.port=</span>&lt;<span style=
-"font-style: italic;">port</span>&gt; <span style=
-"font-weight: bold;">[-Dbridge.tck.login-file=</span>&lt;<span style="font-style: italic;">path
-to login file</span>&gt;<span style=
-"font-weight: bold;">]</span></tt></div>
-<br />
-<br />
-For example to run the tests and generate the test report in a
-situation where the test server is on the <span style=
-"font-weight: bold;">bridge-testserver</span> port <span style=
-"font-weight: bold;">80</span> and the test.xml and
-login.properties file both live in the <span style=
-"font-weight: bold;">TCK_HOME/</span><span style=
-"font-weight: bold;">portlet-bridge-tck-client</span>
-directory:<br />
-<br />
-<div style="margin-left: 40px;"><span style=
-"font-weight: bold;">mvn&#160;</span><tt><span style=
-"font-weight: bold;">surefire-report:report
--Dtck.external-server=run-test
--Dbridge.tck.test.file=</span></tt><span style=
-"font-family: monospace; font-weight: bold;">c:\bridgeTCK\</span><span style="font-family: monospace; font-weight: bold;">portlet-bridge-tck-client\test.xml</span>
-<tt><span style=
-"font-weight: bold;">-Dbridge.tck.test.host=bridge-testserver
--Dbridge.tck.test.port<span style=
-"font-weight: bold;">=</span></span><span style=
-"font-family: mon; font-weight: bold;">80</span>&#160;<span style=
-"font-weight: bold;">-Dbridge.tck.login-file=</span></tt><span style="font-family: monospace; font-weight: bold;">c:\bridgeTCK\</span><span style="font-family: monospace; font-weight: bold;">portlet-bridge-tck-client</span><span style="font-family: monospace; font-weight: bold;">\login.properties</span></div>
-&#160;<br />
-<br />
-Note: &#160;the default value for bridge.tck.test.host is
-<span style="font-weight: bold;">localhost</span> and the default
-value for bridge.tck.test.port is <span style=
-"font-weight: bold;">8080</span>. You only need to define these
-properties on the command line if you are not using the
-default(s).<br />
-<br />
-The above command builds the TestHarness client and then executes
-it by launching JUnit and Selenium. &#160;Two browser windows will
-be activated. The first runs Selenium Remote Control and the second
-the execution of each test. &#160;When the harness completes JUnit
-is used to generate the test reports. &#160;The reports are output
-to&#160;TCK_HOME/portlet-bridge-tck-client/target/portlet-bridge-tck-client-report.html.
-&#160;The raw data from which this report is generated is contained
-in TCK_HOME/portlet-bridge-tck-client/target/surefire-reports<br />
-<br />
-Note: One test, destroyActionTest, can only be run successfully
-once per portlet activation (i.e. the application containing this
-test and/or the server must be bounced before this test can run
-successfully again).<br />
-<br />
-<h4>Alternative to lengthy Maven command lines</h4>
-As Maven doesn't provide a way to pull its properties directly from
-the environment, command lines including the variety of property
-definitions needed to operate the TCK can become quite lengthy.
-&#160;Once you determine those commands that satisfy your needs,
-you might consider writing (shell) scripts to make execution
-easier. &#160;The TCK_HOME directory contains two .cmd files
-(tck-generate-test-wars.cmd and tck-run-tests.cmd) which you can
-either use directly are alter to better suit your needs.<br />

-<h1><a name="Testing_a_Vendor_Implementation_in_a" id=
-"Testing_a_Vendor_Implementation_in_a"></a>Testing a Vendor
-Implementation in a Pluto Environment</h1>
-<hr style="width: 100%; height: 2px;" />
-<br />
-<br />
-<br />
-<br />
-As Apache Pluto is the reference implementation for the Java
-Portlet container, and the Bridge reference implementation is also
-an Apache project, efforts have been made in the TCK to simplify
-testing your vendor implementation running on Pluto.<br />
-<br />
-<h3>Publish your Bridge to the (local) Maven repository</h3>
-Because the TCK is controlled by running Maven, prior to building
-and running the Bridge TCK you need to have published your Bridge
-implementation to a maven repository. &#160;If the one you want to
-test isn't already in an (accessible) external repository, then you
-need to publish it to your local repository. &#160;It is assumed
-your bridge implementation is contained in two jars, one containing
-the required implementations for the public/specified API
-interfaces and classes corresponding to the JavaDoc included with
-the specification and one containing your vendor specific bridge
-implementation. Both jars are published using&#160;the following
-Maven commands:<br />

-For example: &#160;If I wanted to publish Oracle's bridge to my

-<div style="margin-left: 40px;"><span style=

-"Generate_the_TCK_TestSuite_Portlet"></a>Generate the TCK TestSuite
-Portlet Applications (.wars)</h3>
-The TCK TestSuite Portlet Application .wars are built using a Maven
-command. &#160;Two test applications are built:&#160;<font size=

-<br />
-Portlet Applications built to be deployed on Pluto require
-additional configuration in the application's web.xml to relate the
-portlets to the Pluto servlet. &#160;This configuration information
-differs for a Pluto 1.0 container and a Pluto 2.0. Using any of the
-following commands will generate Pluto deployable .wars (with
-web.xml's already properly configured).<br />
-<h4>Maven command used when the Bridge and Faces are already
-deployed in the Test AppServer</h4>
-The following command will build the two test war files without
-packaging either the Bridge jars or the Faces jars into these wars.
-&#160;(i.e. use this command if the&#160;Bridge and Faces software
-is already installed/available in your test application
-server.<br />
