API tests for all of the public APIs under the javax.security.jacc
package
End-To-End tests that demonstrate compliance with the Jakarta Authorization 1.5 Specification
The Jakarta Authorization TCK tests have been built and tested with JavaTM Platform, Standard Edition 8 (Java SE 8).
The Jakarta Authorization TCK tests have been run on the following platforms:
The Jakarta Authorization TCK tests have been run against the Jakarta Authorization 1.5 Compatible Implementation (CI), Eclipse GlassFish 5.1.
Jakarta Enterprise Beans was formerly known as Enterprise Java Beans and abbreviated EJB. References to EJB below refer to Jakarta Enterprise Beans. Use of this term, as commands, switches, or keywords have not been revised.

There are multiple levels of compliance available for Jakarta Authorization certification. Jakarta Authorization allows for certification of the following containers: Web Container, Jakarta Enterprise Beans Container, or Both. The standalone Jakarta Authorization TCK only concerns itself with Web Container tests and possibly some ejb-lite tests (which could be run in a Web Profile environment). There are keywords available which can be supplied on the command line which allow isolating the tests for a given level of certification. (For more on keywords, see the Jakarta Authorization 1.5 TCK User Guide). The list of keywords available for Jakarta Authorization 1.5 TCK is as follows:
- keyword jacc_web : used to run Web Container tests
- keyword jacc_ejb : used to run Jakarta Enterprise Beans Container tests
- keyword jacc_web_profile : used to run WEB and Jakarta Enterprise Beans Lite (EJB-lite) Container tests in Web Profile environment
- keyword jacc : used to run all Jakarta Authorization standalone TCK tests
