no you don't, that's the job of the shapefile plugin, you just need to
make sure it's on the classpath. Check your pom.xml and make sure
there's a dependency (if you only need it for testing, with test scope)
on the gt-shapefile module:
<dependency>
 <groupId>org.geotools</groupId>
 <artifactId>gt-shapefile</artifactId>
 <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

hope that helps,
