Pre-installation Checklists for Third-Party Products

Overview of Pre-installation Checklists for Third-Party Products

As you install third-party products, print and fill out the appropriate third-party software checklists.
Note: You must have the necessary third-party software installed on the current machine, or the utility that you use to deploy SAS, the SAS Deployment Wizard, will not let you complete your SAS deployment.

Java Access Bridge

The Java Access Bridge (JAB) is a prerequisite for JAWS, the Windows accessibility solution. JAB is shipped with SAS 9.3. For more information, see http://support.sas.com/resources/thirdpartysupport/v93/othersw.html.

JUnit

JUnit is an open-source software testing framework for Java, and the de facto standard for writing unit and regression tests. Some of the validation tests shipped with SAS products run under the SAS Deployment Tester framework and require JUnit. For more information about JUnit version requirements, go to http://support.sas.com/resources/thirdpartysupport/v93/othersw.html.
