New License Requirements for Upgrades

Users upgrading DTP and/or License Server may need to acquire new licenses:

  • DTP users upgrading to 2022.1 must acquire a new license for DTP and will need to acquire new network licenses for pre-existing tools if their machine ID has changed.
  • License Server users upgrading to 2022.1 will need to acquire new network licenses for pre-existing tools if their machine ID has changed.

Support for PostgreSQL

PostgreSQL database support has been added.

Modified Coverage Widget

The Modified Coverage widget that was previously a part of the Process Intelligence Pack is now installed automatically as part of DTP. Users who installed the Modified Coverage widget as part of the Process Intelligence Pack in their previous version of DTP will need to manually delete the old widget from their installation. To do so, delete this file: <DTP_DATA_DIR>/grs/plugins/widgets/coverage.modifiedCodeCoverage.def.json.

API Security Widgets and Reports

New API security widgets and reports have been added to DTP, enabling you to monitor security issues found by SOAtest ZAP penetration tests and group them by OWASP Top 10 or the Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE™) dictionary.

Enhanced Integration with codeBeamer - Traceability Reporting for Automotive SPICE

DTP integration with codeBeamer ALM has been improved with:

  • Support for more than one test tracker.
  • Support for defining test trackers per project.
  • Support for mapping from test tracker to test run tracker.

License Usage Pack

The License Usage Pack is now available, providing a collection of DTP widgets and reports that present information regarding license usage of Parasoft tools whose licenses are deployed on the License Server. It allows you to monitor how many Parasoft tools are being used in your organization, who is using these tools, and show if there were any license shortages or if license requests were close to your token limit.
