JTool SCT (a Java tool for systematic concurrency testing)

Getting started

  • git clone this repository to a directory. E.g. /data/java/jtool-sct.

We will refer to this direcory as $JTOOL_ROOT.

  • Install JDK 7. E.g.
$ sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jdk openjdk-7-source

Note: the tool probably won't work with JDK 8. On Windows, you can download and install the latest version of Oracle's JDK 7.

  • Download Maven and extract it somewhere. E.g. /data/java/maven.

  • In $JTOOL_ROOT, copy template_env.sh (or template_env.cmd if on Windows) to env.sh (or env.cmd if on Windows). Edit the environment variables at the top of the file to match your environment.

  • From a terminal, source env.sh:

$ source env.sh

On Windows, you can "execute" it from a command prompt:

> env.cmd
  • Java 7 and Maven should now be on your path. E.g.:
$ java -version
java version "1.7.0_85"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea 2.6.1) (7u85-2.6.1-5ubuntu0.15.04.1)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.85-b03, mixed mode)

$ mvn help:evaluate -Dexpression=settings.localRepository

  • You should now be able to execute the following commands one after the other (the output has been omitted):
$ build_all
$ instr_rt
$ install_rt

build_all builds jtool and all benchmarks. instr_rt instruments the current JDK 7 runtime jar and places it in the $JTOOL_ROOT/temp directory. install_rt places the instrumented jar in the local maven repository so that it can be found easily. Look at the env file if you want to see what these commands actually do.

  • You can now execute a test harness, replacing java with the jtool command:
$ jtool example.SimpleHarness
  • TODO: Include a simple example harness.

  • The included test harness that executes all the benchmarks is:

$JTOOL_ROOT/projects/runbenchmarks/src/main/java/runbenchmarks/MainHarness.java

To execute this, you should load the Maven projects in $JTOOL_ROOT/projects into an IDE, such as IntelliJ, and run MainHarness.java. This approach ensures all the necessary jar files are on the classpath. You should add the following JVM arguments to the run configuration:

-Xbootclasspath/p:$M2_REPO/org/jtool/local/rt/1/rt-1.jar -javaagent:$M2_REPO/org/jtool/jtool-runtime/0.1/jtool-runtime-0.1.jar

You will probably need to manually replace $M2_REPO with the actual location of your Maven repository. You may also need to be careful that your IDE runs the harness using JDK 7 and that your Maven installation is used (instead of the IDE's included Maven installation).
