Java Development

In its simplest form, Eclipse is a Java development environment. Eclipse supports the creation, building, running, and testing of Java projects in one environment. Eclipse also has several tools to support Java development, in particular the debugger tool. Other tools that are available are concurrent versioning system (CVS) and JUnit. CVS is a repository to maintain multiple versions of files and track changes. JUnit is a unit testing framework specifically for Java.
