You do not need to install glassfish on the machine used for your CI builds. But you need to be able to access the required libraries from your classpath. The Java enterprise APIs are bundled in a javaee.jar. Thus just copy the file javaee.jar from within the "lib"-directory of your glassfish installation to a folder that is part of the classpath of your build script.
