You can use the following predefined variables to simplify the parameters:

  • ${scope}: Uses the current UI selection to set the scope (i.e, the project, directory, or file selected in the Project Explorer, Navigator, or file editor).
  • ${configuration}: Uses the test configuration specified in the Parasoft> Configuration settings, see Working with Test Configurations.
  • ${bdf}: Uses the .bdf file of the selected project as an input for testing. The .bdf file must be located in the main project's directory.

5. Specify the working directory in the Working directory field. You can use the following predefined variables: 

  • ${workspace_loc}: Points to the current workspace directory in Eclipse.
  • ${solution.dir}: Points to the current solution directory in Visual Studio.
