PowerMock is a framework that extends other mock libraries such as EasyMock with more powerful capabilities. PowerMock uses a custom classloader and bytecode manipulation to enable mocking of static methods, constructors, final classes and methods, private methods, removal of static initializers and more. By using a custom classloader no changes need to be done to the IDE or continuous integration servers which simplifies adoption.

Ant is a platform-independent build tool for Java. It is similar to make but is implemented using the Java language, requires the Java platform, and is best suited to building Java projects. Ant uses XML to describe the build process and its dependencies, whereas Make uses Makefile format.

The Daemon package from Apache Commons can be used to implement Java applications which can be launched as daemons. For example the program will be notified about a shutdown so that it can perform cleanup tasks before its process of execution is destroyed by the operation system.

This package contains the Java library. You will also need the actual binary for your architecture which is provided by the jsvc package.

This is a part of the Apache Commons Project.

JMock is a library that supports test-driven development of Java code with mock objects. Mock objects help you design and test the interactions between the objects in your programs.

The jMock library

• makes it quick and easy to define mock objects

• lets you precisely specify the interactions between your objects, reducing the brittleness of your tests

• plugs into your favourite test framework

• is easy to extend.

OSGi, for Open Services Gateway initiative framework, is a module system and service platform for the Java programming language. This package contains the OSGi annotation module, providing additional services to help dynamic components.

TestNG is a testing framework inspired from JUnit and NUnit but introducing some new functionalities that make it more powerful and easier to use.

This package implements POJO type materialization. Databinders can construct implementation classes for Java interfaces as part of deserialization.

This package provides the Eclipse preferences mechanism with the module org.eclipse.equinox.preferences.

OSGi, for Open Services Gateway initiative framework, is a module system and service platform for the Java programming language. This package contains a resolver service that resolves the specified resources in the context supplied by the caller.

Ivy is a tool for managing (recording, tracking, resolving and reporting) project dependencies. It is characterized by the following:

• flexibility and configurability - Ivy is essentially process agnostic and is not tied to any methodology or structure. Instead it provides the necessary flexibility and configurability to be adapted to a broad range of dependency management and build processes.

• tight integration with Apache Ant - while available as a standalone tool, Ivy works particularly well with Apache Ant providing a number of powerful Ant tasks ranging from dependency resolution to dependency reporting and publication.

This package provides the Java development kit OpenJDK built with the IcedTea build harness.

This package provides an implementation of the OSGi Core specification.

OSGi, for Open Services Gateway initiative framework, is a module system and service platform for the Java programming language. This package contains the OSGi org.osgi.service.event module.

The Java Collections Framework is the recognised standard for collection handling in Java. Commons-Collections seek to build upon the JDK classes by providing new interfaces, implementations and utilities. There are many features, including:

• Bag interface for collections that have a number of copies of each object

• BidiMap interface for maps that can be looked up from value to key as well and key to value

• MapIterator interface to provide simple and quick iteration over maps

• Transforming decorators that alter each object as it is added to the collection

• Composite collections that make multiple collections look like one

• Ordered maps and sets that retain the order elements are added in, including an LRU based map

• Reference map that allows keys and/or values to be garbage collected under close control

• Many comparator implementations

• Many iterator implementations

• Adapter classes from array and enumerations to collections

• Utilities to test or create typical set-theory properties of collections such as union, intersection, and closure.

JLine is a Java library for handling console input. It is similar in functionality to BSD editline and GNU readline but with additional features that bring it in par with ZSH line editor. People familiar with the readline/editline capabilities for modern shells (such as bash and tcsh) will find most of the command editing features of JLine to be familiar.

This package includes the line reader.

This package contains an HTTP/1.1 compliant HTTP agent implementation. It also provides reusable components for client-side authentication, HTTP state management, and HTTP connection management.

The Jakarta-ORO Java classes are a set of text-processing Java classes that provide Perl5 compatible regular expressions, AWK-like regular expressions, glob expressions, and utility classes for performing substitutions, splits, filtering filenames, etc. This library is the successor of the OROMatcher, AwkTools, PerlTools, and TextTools libraries originally from ORO, Inc.

This package provides the Eclipse content mechanism in the org.eclipse.core.contenttype module.

EasyMock is a Java library that provides an easy way to use mock objects in unit testing.

This package provides the Eclipse Java core batch compiler.

Bnd is a swiss army knife for OSGi, it creates manifest headers based on analyzing the class code, it verifies the project settings, it manages project dependencies, gives diffs jars, and much more.

OSGi, for Open Services Gateway initiative framework, is a module system and service platform for the Java programming language. This package contains the packageadmin service.

JOpt Simple is a Java library for parsing command line options, such as those you might pass to an invocation of javac. In the interest of striving for simplicity, as closely as possible JOpt Simple attempts to honor the command line option syntaxes of POSIX getopt and GNU getopt_long. It also aims to make option parser configuration and retrieval of options and their arguments simple and expressive, without being overly clever.

The Apache Commons Net library implements the client side of many basic Internet protocols. The purpose of the library is to provide fundamental protocol access, not higher-level abstractions.
