This topic describes test configurations shipped with C/C++test, which represent the most common scenarios. See Configuring Test Configurations and Rules for Policies for details about creating custom test configurations and deploying test configurations across the team.

Built-in test configurations are organized into the following categories:

Static Analysis

This group includes universal static analysis test configurations. See Compliance Packs for test configurations that enforce coding standards

Test Configuration Description
Recommended Rules

The default configuration of recommended rules. Covers most Severity 1 and Severity 2 rules. Includes rules in the Flow Analysis Fast configuration.

Flow Analysis StandardDetects complex runtime errors without requiring test cases or application execution. Defects detected include using uninitialized or invalid memory, null pointer dereferencing, array and buffer overflows, division by zero, memory and resource leaks, and dead code.  This requires a special Flow Analysis license option. See Introducing Built-in Flow Analysis Test Configurations for more details on Flow Analysis Test Configurations.
Flow Analysis Fast The fast configuration uses "Shallowest" depth of analysis and runs faster than the standard and aggressive configurations. The fast configuration finds a moderate amount of problems and prevents violation number explosion. See Introducing Built-in Flow Analysis Test Configurations for more details on Flow Analysis Test Configurations.
Flow Analysis  AggressiveThe aggressive option reports any suspicious code as a violation. See Introducing Built-in Flow Analysis Test Configurations for more details on Flow Analysis Test Configurations.
Effective C++Checks rules from Scott Meyers’  "Effective C++" book. These rules check the efficiency of C++ programs.
Effective STLChecks rules from Scott Meyers’ "Effective STL" book.
Modern C++ (11, 14 and 17)Checks rules that enforce best practices for modern C++ standards (C++11, C++14, C++17).
Find Duplicated CodeDetects duplicated functions, code fragments, string literals, and #include directives.
Find Unused CodeIncludes rules for identifying unused/dead code.
MetricsReports metrics statistics and detects metric values out of acceptable ranges.
Global AnalysisChecks the Global Static Analysis rules.
Sutter-AlexandrescuChecks rules based on the book "C++ Coding Standards," by Herb Sutter and Andrei Alexandrescu.
The Power of TenChecks rules based on Gerard J. Holzmann’s article "The Power of Ten - Rules for Developing Safety Critical Code." (http://spinroot.com/gerard/pdf/Power_of_Ten.pdf)

Compliance Packs

Compliance Packs include test configurations tailored for particular compliance domains to help you enforce industry-specific compliance standards and practices. See Compliance Packs Rule Mapping for information how the standards are mapped to C/C++test's rules.

Displaying compliance results on DTP

Some test configurations in this category have a corresponding "Compliance" extension on DTP, which allows you to view your security compliance status, generate compliance reports, and monitor the progress towards your security compliance goals.  These test configurations require dedicated license features to be activated. Contact Parasoft Support for more details on Compliance Packs licensing.

See the "Extensions for DTP" section in the DTP documentation for the list of available extensions, requirements, and usage.

Utilities

Test Configuration Description
Load Test Results (File)

Collects test results via the file channel. By default, this configuration assumes that logs are located inside ${cpptest:testware_loc}. If needed, you can customize this location to any file system location that can be accessed from the C++test GUI.

Load Test Results (Sockets)Collects "on the fly" test results sent through TCP/IP sockets. It starts a java utility program to listen to and capture test results. You can customize the port numbers for test and coverage results. Port numbers are defined with the results_port and coverage_port properties. 
Extract Library SymbolsExtracts a list of symbols from external libraries (or object files). It should be used whenever C++test’s standard algorithm for collecting information about symbols from binaries is not sufficient. For example if you use a Wind River DKM type of project, you may want to have all symbols from the VxWorks image collected in this way. You will probably need to enter the location of the binaries you want to extract symbols from, as well as the name of the nm-like utility that can be used to dump the content of library/object file. 
Generate Stubs Using External Library SymbolsGenerates stubs after the "Extract Library Symbols" Test Configuration has been run. It assumes that a file with a list of symbols from external libraries is stored in the project temporary data. 
Load Application CoverageImports the coverage data collected with the cpptestcc coverage tool into your IDE; see Collecting Application Coverage with cpptestcc.
Load Archived ResultsLoads the archived results into C/C++test; see Merging Results from Multiple Test Runs.
