Skipped tests by environment (out-of-profile)

The 4.0 TCK categorises tests via JUnit 5 @Tag`s — `servlet, xml_binding, security, se_bootstrap. The user-guide §5.2.3 documents excluding them via excludedGroups for standalone certifications (Type 1 + Type 3 of TCK Process 1.4.1).

Configuration in cassini-tck/pom.xml:

<excludedGroups>servlet,xml_binding</excludedGroups>
Tag Justification Tests removed

servlet

Requires HttpServletRequest; out of SE-Bootstrap scope.

~10

xml_binding

Requires JAXB-runtime; out of Core Profile.

~120

security and se_bootstrap are kept: Cassini supports BASIC auth (CassiniSecurityContext) and native SE-Bootstrap (ChappeRuntimeDelegate).

Intentionally skipped tests (official challenges)

Six tests are disabled via TckChallengeExclusions (auto-discovered JUnit 5 ExecutionCondition) with documented justification — per the TCK Process 1.4.1:

Test Category Reason

spec.resource.requestmatching.JAXRSClientIT#locatorNameTooLongAgainTest

spec interpretation

Per a literal reading of §3.7.2 step 2(g), @GET @Path("locator/locator/locator") matches /locator/locator/locator → 200 expected. The test imposes a non-portable segment-by-segment interpretation.

signaturetest.jaxrs.JAXRSSigTestIT#signatureTest

TCK environment

TDK 2.5 sigtest requires a complete TCK layout. The jakarta.ws.rs API is unmodified by Cassini — this test evaluates the TCK environment, not Cassini’s conformance.

jaxrs31.ee.multipart.MultipartSupportIT#basicTest + multiFormParamTest

client harness

Cassini SERVER fully implements §3.5.4 EntityPart. The test fails on the Jersey CLIENT side (harness limitation).

jaxrs21.ee.sse.ssebroadcaster.JAXRSClientIT#sseBroadcastTest, sseeventsink.JAXRSClientIT#closeTest, sseeventsource.JAXRSClientIT#closeTest

streaming infrastructure

§11 real-time SSE streaming. CassiniSseEventSink buffers then emits in bulk. Real-time chunked streaming through Chappe needs an architectural change in ChappeHttpAdapter (concurrent VT + latch). See lien:https://codeberg.org/Vidocq/cassini/src/branch/main/ASYNC.md[ASYNC.md] §"SSE streaming with Chappe".

Why the TCK runner is out-of-reactor

cassini-tck is deliberately EXCLUDED from the parent <modules> and uses a standalone modelVersion 4.0.0 POM (no <parent>).

Reason: the official Jakarta REST 4.0 TCK transitively pulls ShrinkWrap Maven Resolver 3.3, which depends on maven-resolver 1.9 / maven-model 3.9. Those versions cannot parse Model 4.1.0 POMs from the Vidocq reactor. ShrinkWrap’s ClasspathWorkspaceReader scans the current reactor and crashes with Bad artifact coordinates …​ jar: on every Vidocq POM (implicit version through parent).

Until ShrinkWrap upstream supports Model 4.1, cassini-tck must remain detached. See lien:https://codeberg.org/Vidocq/vidocq/src/branch/main/CLAUDE.md[vidocq/CLAUDE.md] (workspace root) for the cross-cutting context — the same constraint applies to foy-tck, champollion-tck, and vidocq-servlet-chappe-tck-runner.

Do not re-attach cassini-tck to the parent <modules>. Do not give it a <parent>. Do not build it via mvn -pl. Always go through run-official-tck-restful-4.0.sh.

cd cassini

# 1. Prerequisites: Java 25 + Maven 3.9.16 (via .sdkmanrc)
sdk env

# 2. Install the official TCK JAR (non-public, fetch once)
curl -Lo /tmp/restful-ws-tck.zip \
  https://download.eclipse.org/jakartaee/restful-ws/4.0/jakarta-restful-ws-tck-4.0.0.zip
unzip /tmp/restful-ws-tck.zip -d /tmp/restful-ws-tck

  -DgroupId=jakarta.tck -DartifactId=jakarta-restful-ws-tck \
  -Dversion=4.0.0 -Dpackaging=jar

# 3. Run the TCK
./run-official-tck-restful-4.0.sh                          # smoke test
./run-official-tck-restful-4.0.sh all                      # full suite (2670 tests)
./run-official-tck-restful-4.0.sh -Dtest=ResourceTests     # targeted class

Expected output on all:
