Parasoft tools, such as C/C++, Java, and .NET are the engines that drive SDLC analytics. They analyze code, execute tests, measure coverage, and perform other quality tasks. Extensions for using open source analyzers and tools are available in the Parasoft Marketplace: http://marketplace.parasoft.com.. Contact Parasoft to download extensions.
You can run the tools on the desktop or automate code analysis and test execution as part of the build process. The Parasoft tools and third-party analyzers generate local HTML/XML files and publish details to DTP for aggregation, reporting, and analysis.

Parasoft provides plugins for popular IDEs, such as Visual Studio, Eclipse, NetBeans, and IntelliJ. The plugins enable you to integrate Parasoft tools and analyzers from the marketplace into the IDE for local GUI-based code analysis. Additionally, the plugins enable you to retrieve findings that have been processed by DTP and import them into the IDE. Parasoft tools do not need to be plugged into the IDE for you to leverage the ability to download and import DTP findings. The IDE plugins can also be configured so that only findings with specific prioritization/metadata associated with them are downloaded and imported into the IDE.

- Extension Designer: Create custom logic flows that perform additional data processing functions and calculations. You can use Extension Designer to create functions that access patterns buried deep in the SDLC data. See Extension Designer for details.
- Extensions for Enterprise Pack: The Parasoft Marketplace contains several readymade extensions that you can download and deploy with minimal set upYou can extend DTP functionality with readymade extensions from Parasoft. Extensions perform a range of tasks, such as applying a secondary analysis of the test, coverage, metrics, and other analysis data sent to DTP, processing SDLC analytics against development policies and returning prioritized, actionable tasks. See Extensions for DTP Enterprise Pack.
- Policy Center: An engine that leverages data stored in DTP to automatically monitor compliance with non-functional requirements and provide insight into the risk associated with the release candidate. See Policy Center for details.
...
The tools also ship with plugins/integrations for the CI infrastructure (i.e., Jenkins, TeamCity). These integrations are also available in the Parasoft Marketplace (http://marketplace.parasoft.com/)from Parasoft.
Capturing Observations
When Parasoft tools execute analysis, they capture massive amounts of detailed data associated with the code called “observations.” Observations can be code quality data, such as static analysis violations, unit test failures, etc., as well as logistical information about the code, such as authorship, scope, and source control location.
