Installation
You can install Virtualizeas a standalone Eclipse-based application or as an Eclipse p2 update. This topic describes the standalone installation. Refer to Eclipse p2 Update Site Installation for instruction on installing into your own Eclipse IDE.
- Run the setup executable that you downloaded from the Parasoft Web site.
Follow the installation program's onscreen instructions to install the application into your preferred directory. The default installation directory is C:\Program Files\Parasoft.
The default workspace will be added and set to the <user_home_dir>/parasoft/workspace directory (e.g., C:\Users\username\parasoft\virtualize_workspace).The default workspace is preselected in the Select a Workspace dialog when you first start the application. If you select a different workspace, the new workspace will be preselected when you start the application from that point forward.
The command line interface uses the default workspace any time that you do explicitly specify a workspace from the command line (with the -data argument)—whether or not you have previously run the command line interface with another workspace.
Windows SmartScreen Filter
Windows 8.x and later ships with a security feature called SmartScreen, which may attempt to prevent you from completing the installation.
Click the More info link and click Run anyway when prompted to allow Windows to complete the installation.
Parasoft software is digitally signed and will not harm your system.
Startup
Double-click the Virtualize desktop icon or choose Programs > Parasoft > Virtualize <version> > Virtualize from the Windows Start menu to start Virtualize.
You must have a valid license before you can use Virtualize.
