- Use DTP settings: Enable this option to use the connections settings specified in DTP. See Connecting to DTP.
- Server Name: Specifies a name for the server you are connecting to CTP. This is the name that will be used to identify this server within CTP.
- CTP URL: Specifies the location of the CTP to which you are connecting (e.g., http://emdemo:8080).
Notify CTP of virtual asset deployment: Determines whether the server notifies Parasoft CTP when virtual assets are first deployed.
- Username: Specifies the username for logging into CTP.
Password: Specifies the password for logging into CTP.
Note If OpenID Connect authentication is enabled, the Username and Password fields do not appear. Instead, you will see a notice that OIDC authentication is in use with a button to test that connection.
Global Data Source Settings

- Default timeout (milliseconds): Allows you to enter the length of delay (in milliseconds) after which SOAtest should consider your FTP, telnet, or HTTP requests to be “timed out.” The default is 30000 milliseconds.
- Report each duplicate error that occurs on the same line: Tells SOAtest to show only the first instance of duplicate errors that occur for the same line of code.
- Reset Cookies: Allows you to clear the current global cookies so that next HTTP invocations start a new session.
- Enable the Automatically backup project files option and specify a file size threshold for .tst and/or .pva files in the Warn on file size large than (MB) field to be notified when the size of the file exceeds the threshold. You can then reduce the size (and prevent performance problems) by dividing it into smaller files.

Azure Active Directory users: Enter the redirect URL configured above under "Mobile and desktop applications" in Azure AD. For example, if Callback host is set to "localhost" and Callback port is set to "Automatically select an open port" (the default values), you would enter "http://localhost/oauth2_callback" for the callback URL in Azure AD. |
Proxy Settings
The Proxy panel controls how SOAtest and/or Virtualize works with proxy servers. It does not control the separate intermediary proxy used for web scenarios (for details on this other proxy, seeProxy Configuration Details).

Configure global HTTP authentication properties that can be used when configuring HTTP protocols within an applicable tool.
- Enables Enable the Perform Authentication option and enter the Username and Password to authenticate the request
- Choose the authentication type from the drop-down menu. Supported types are Basic, NTLM, Kerberos, or Digest.
- If you are using Kerberos authentication, enter the Service Principal to authenticate the request. If the correct username and password, or the correct service principal, are not used, the request will not be authenticated.
- Kerberos realm: Specify the Kerberos realm associated with your network. By convention, this is typically your domain name in all caps (e.g. PARASOFT.COM).
- KDC server: Specify the hostname of your Key Distribution Center (e.g. kdc.parasoft.com).
- Check Ticket: This will execute a simple test to locate a cached Kerberos TGT (Ticket Granting Ticket) to grant access to the service. SOAtest and/or Virtualize will not be able to communicate with the service if it cannot first locate a valid TGT. For more information about Kerberos, see Configuring Kerberos Authentication.

There are two ways to define settings files:
- Enter them manually in a simple text file simple text file. There are no name or location requirements. Each setting should be entered in a single line.
- Export your GUI preferences, then adjust or extend them as needed. To export, choose Parasoft> Preferences, select Parasoft (the root element in the left tree), click the Share link, specify which settings you want to export.
Settings files can specify the following settings.
