Summary

In this chapter, we began the setup of our development environment with the following core tools required for Java development:

• Java development kit (JDK) setup

• Ant

• JUnit

However, we still have some environment-related setup remaining in the chapters ahead. For example, we need to install the database, the web server, Eclipse, and more. However, we will tackle each technology one at a time and as we need it, in the coming chapters.
