+The test framework for GNU Classpath is called
+<createlink url="http://sources.redhat.com/mauve/" name="Mauve">. There
+are instructions within the Mauve website on how to download and use Mauve.
+Writing Mauve tests is the most important thing GNU Classpath developers
+could do for the project at this time.

+<p>
+Java API compatibility testing can be performed using
+<createlink url="http://www.kaffe.org/~stuart/japi/"
+name="japitools">. Japitools already does
+full API comparisons but it doesn't have the capability to extract
+APIs from the documentation - instead, the "japize" tool uses the
+jode.bytecode library to identify the public members of a given set of
+packages from the binary jars or zips. But japitools does separate the
+API-inspection phase ("japize") from the compatibility-testing phase
+("japicompat") so it would be easy to offer an alternative to japize
+that worked on API documentation.
+</p>
+<p>
+Another method of API compatibility testing is to use <createlink
+url="http://majestix.ucnet.uoc.gr/~jgeorgal/pub/jdiff.sh"
+name="jdiff.sh">, at least until this functionality is merged into
+japitools.

+Many free benchmarks are available. Benchmarks are a good way to test the functionality of a VM and at the same time get results that can be compared.
