Section 2.1 of trunk/java/testing/README.htm gives instructions for

Further on in the same webpage, section 4.9 lists "supported jvms"
where the tests have successfully run.
Is this accurate? More specifically, if we improve Derby's test
infrastructure, what platforms do we expect the new infrastructure to
support? What's good enough to start out with?

Hi Rick
We run the Derby tests on a variety of platforms like:
- Windows 2000/2003/XP
- Linux flavours (SuSe Pro 9.2, SLES 9.0, RHEL (3.0 and 4.0), Fedora )
- Solaris 9,10
- AIX 5.x
- Apple OS X Server
- zOS v1R6 (zSeries)
- i5/OS (iSeries)
The current testing harness being Java provides the flexibility to run
on platforms with valid JVMs. Hence if there are plans to improve the
infrastructure,
I would expect it will continue to run on the above platforms.
In addition 64 bit Linux and Windows would also be desirable as
supported platforms

Rajesh
