Welcome to the Java Compatibility Kit
(JCK 1.1)
The Java Compatibility Kit contains the set of Java Compatibility Tests, to
exercise Java implementations, and a program called JavaTest to run the tests.
The tests are designed to test conformance of Java
implementations to the three Java specifications: the
Java Language Specification, the
Virtual Machine Specification, and the
API Specification.
The tests are organized in a hierarchy of web pages, with each test program
being represented by a Test Description,
written using standard HTML. The tests are designed to be run in conjunction with a
batch environment such as JavaTest, although the tests may also
be run stand-alone to simplify tracking down any problems that may be uncovered.
The Java Compatibility Kit contains everything needed to
certify a Java implementation as "Java Compatible".
