Jakarta EE TCK: https://projects.eclipse.org/proposals/eclipse-jakarta-ee-tck
Github Repo: https://github.com/eclipse-ee4j/jakartaee-tck

Latest updates from [jakarta.ee-spec] TCK information, June 2019, the excerpts: 

• We have summed up some information about how the TCK can be built (or 
  grabbed pre-built), configured, and run [1].
• This is assumed to be run against a Glassfish with the latest API 
  integrated (replacing the original API in the Glassfish).

• We have created a recording of a presentation of the Jenkins jobs that 
  manage all that [2].

• We have created 3 Jenkins files for pipeline job (as an example for 
  JSON-B TCK) to a) properly set the ts.jte configuration file, b) to grab 
  the API artifact built by a Jenkins build job and integrate it to a 
  Glassfish and c) to grab the pre-built TCK bundle from Eclipse Download, 
  grab the configured ts.jte file, grab the Glassfish with new API 
  integrated, and run the TCK [3].

For the complete information, please allow me to mention the list of the 
TCK tasks needed to be done before the Jakarta EE release can be 
finished [4].

The [5] is the example how to run Jakarta EE TCKs with Tomcat.

The [6] is the official list of the instructions.

The [7] is the list of the instructions from TomEE TCK .
