Students will learn to develop and test server-side applications based on the Java 2 platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE) component model using the IBM software platform of products and tools. Develop and test server-side applications that use servlets and JavaServer Pages (JSPs) for the control and flow of e-business applications.

• Develop and test servlets
• Develop and test JavaServer Pages (JSPs)
• Develop and test J2EE applications following the Model/View/Controller architecture
• Integrate business logic using Java Beans and Java Database Connectivity (JDBC)
• Apply best practices to servlet and JSP development

Students will have the opportunity to build a simple Java program, servlets and JSPs using RAD v6. Students will also deploy a J2EE application into WebSphere Application Server v6.

You should understand essential concepts of Object-Oriented Programming and be able to write simple Java programs with assistance.

After completing this course, the students should be able to:

• Use RAD v6 as a truly integrated development environment
• Build servlets according to the current Servlet 2.4 specification
• Build JSPs according to the current JSP 2.0 specification
• Build custom JSP tag libraries
• Integrate servlets and JSPs into a complete J2EE application
• Test servlets and JSPs using the WebSphere Test Environment
• Deploy a J2EE application to WebSphere Application Server

Java programmers who build server-side web applications interested in leveraging RAD v6 to streamline their development cycle.
