Chapter 4. Environment Setup: JDK, Ant, and JUnit

4. Environment Setup: JDK, Ant, and JUnit

IN THIS CHAPTER, WE WILL get the bare-bones set of tools installed so we can begin to develop, build, test, and deploy our Java code.

One of the goals of this book is to be a quick read and not to provide you with redundant, or even out-of-date, information. Hence, I'm not going to provide setup instructions for the various tools covered in this chapter (for example, Ant). Instead, I will refer you to their respective websites because all the tools covered in our book provide you with ample, up-to-date setup instructions.
