Appendix C. The source code for the book
This appendix covers
- Installing the book’s source code
- Software versions required
- Directory structure conventions
This appendix gives an overview of the book’s source code, where to find it, how to install it, and how to run it. When we were writing this book, we decided to donate all of the book’s source code to the Apache Software Foundation, because we used many Apache frameworks in the making of this book. Therefore, we’ve made our source code available as open source on SourceForge at http://junitbook.sourceforge.net/junit2/.
We’re also committed to maintaining this source code and fixing it if bugs are found, as a standard open source project. In addition, a Manning author forum has been set up for discussing the code at http://www.manning-sandbox.com/forum.jspa?forumID=502.
- Download a released version from http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=68011 and unzip it somewhere on your hard drive.
- Use an SVN client and get the source from SVN HEAD. Getting the source from SVN is explained at http://sourceforge.net/svn/?group_id=68011. Either way, place the source code in a local directory named junitbook2/ (for example, C:\junitbook2 on Windows or /opt/junitbook2 on UNIX).
