How can a framework be Java EE compliant?

If I have to develop my own application server, what does it take to say I am Java EE compliant?

For example app servers like GlassFish and WebSphere claim that they are Java EE compliant. What should one do to make sure my application server is Java EE compliant?

Pass the Compatibility Test Suite (CTS).

From Oracle's Java EE FAQ on Java EE 6:

The Java EE Compatibility Test Suite (CTS) is available for the Java EE platform. The Java EE CTS contains thousands of compatibility tests for Java EE 6. The suite tests compatibility by performing specific application functions and checking results. For example, to test the JPA call to persist an entity, an EJB test component makes a call to persist an object and then a call is made to check that the object was persisted.

The full CTS is given to Java EE licencees, but there are some parts that are public.

The spec is managed by Oracle (it used to be Sun) and you can find information at Here.
