Apache uimaFIT

Apache uimaFIT is an open source software, designed as part of the Apache UIMA project. It was formerly known as uimaFIT, which in turn was formerly known as UUTUC.

Apache uimaFIT is just a simple library that only provides injection, testing, and factories utilities for its bigger bother, the Apache UIMA project.

The Apache uimaFIT project is comprised of the following modules: uimafit-core,  uimafit-cpe, uimafit-maven-plugin, uimafit-legacy-support, and uimafit-spring.

The software can only be used in concomitance with a compatible version of the Apache UIMA Java SDK. It works on any operating system where the Java Runtime Environment is present.
