What is the SigTest Project?

On April 10, 2008, Sun released its signature testing and API conformance tool, called SigTest. The SigTest tool makes it possible to easily compare the signatures of two different implementations of the same API. It verifies that all of the members are present, reports when new members are added, and checks the specified behavior of each API member. Originally developed to help in the creation of TCK test suites, it has since evolved into a general purpose tool that can be used to compare any two implementations of an API to determine their differences. The SigTest Project, while considered part of the Mobile and Embedded Community, is hosted on java.net as a separate project at https://sigtest.dev.java.net/.
