Chapter 11. Installation, Configuration, Update

11.1. Technical Requirements

PDFUnit needs Java 7 or higher.

Also the runtime libraries of iText version 5.3.3 or higher are needed. They are not included in PDFUnit because they need a separate license.

If you run PDFUnit with ANT, Maven or other tools, you have to install those tools independently from PDFUnit.

Tested Environments

PDFUnit was successfully tested in these environments:

Operating System	Java Version
Windows-XP, 32 Bit Windows-7, 64 Bit Kubuntu Linux 12/04, 32 Bit Kubuntu Linux 12/04, 64 Bit Mac OS X, 64 Bit	Oracle JDK-1.7.0, 32 + 64 Bit Oracle JDK-1.8.0, 64 Bit Oracle JDK-1.8.0 b100, Windows, 32 + 64 Bit IBM J9, R26_Java726_SR4, Windows 7, 64 Bit OpenJDK-1.6.0, 64 Bit Apple Inc. 1.6.0, 64 Bit

An error occurs with the JDK version “IBM J9, R26_Java726_SR1” under “Windows 7, 32 Bit”.

The JDK version “Oracle 1.8.0” processes PNG files differently from version 1.7.x. Therefore image files of rendered PDF pages have to be rendered using the same Java version when they are used in PDFUnit tests.

More combinations of Java and operating systems will be tested in the future.
