This topic explains how to install Virtualize from a Eclipse p2 update site. This process applies to the Virtualize standalone installation, which is built on Eclipse. 

SOAtest - Virtualize Co-Installation

When Parasoft SOAtest and Parasoft Virtualize are installed on the same machine, SOAtest and Virtualize must have an identical version number. This ensures compatibility between both products. 

If you are updating an existing installation (including updating from a service pack), be sure to update both products at the same time. 

Installation

When installing from the update site, you need to install the Eclipse Graphical Editing Framework (GEF). You can download and install Eclipse GEF from http://www.eclipse.org/gef/.

  1. Launch Virtualize, then choose Help> Install New Software.
  2. Add the p2 update site zip file as follows:
    1. Click the Add button. An Add Site dialog will open.
    2. In the dialog’s Name field, type Parasoft.
    3. To the right of the Location field, click the Archive button, then browse to the appropriate zip file (obtained via your Parasoft representative).
    4. Click OK. The Install panel will display the available features.
  3. Select the features that you want to install, then click Next and follow the prompts to complete the installation process.
  4. (Recommended) Restart Virtualize.

Mac OS Installation Using the Eclipse Installer

If you have installed Eclipse on Mac using the Eclipse installer, you will need to start Eclipse from the command line before using the update site.
