License Server Enhancements

  • New setting: Restrict access to automation licenses. When enabled, License Server will deny access to licenses with automation features unless those features are explicitly requested. This setting is enabled by default.
    • Starting with version 2025.2, automation licenses will be granted only to tools that explicitly request the automation feature. This prevents desktop instances from consuming tokens intended for automation use. Both the Parasoft tool and License Server must be version 2025.2 or later and Restrict access to automation licenses setting must be enabled for this behavior to take effect.
  • Contributing Developers Usage Data: License Server now captures and displays additional information about the author of the latest commit in the git repository
  • New setting: Delete Contributing Developers Usage Data older than one year. When enabled, License Server will automatically delete usage data sent from Parasoft C/C++test CT and Parasoft C/C++test Standard after one year. This setting is enabled by default.
  • In addition, the License Server setting Grant license token to login username is now enabled by default in new installations. Users upgrading to 2025.2 will have their current setting preserved.
  • Floating licenses have been relabeled as "concurrent" licenses. No functionality has changed.
  • Updated licenseserver/usage API to support filtering license usage by license.
