You can preconfigure the Parasoft Test component during installation. Parasoft Test is a framework shipped with Parasoft products that enables many common functionalities, such as code analysis and test execution.

  1. Create a localsettings settings file that includes the options you want to preconfigure the installation with. See Localsettings Settings for details on available options.
  2. Pass that localsettings settings file to the installer using the /configure or --configure parameter.
    For example:

    • Windows: /configure=<path-to-localsettingssettings-file>

    • Unix: --configure <path-to-localsettingssettings-file>

The localsettings settings file will be copied into the root directory of Parasoft Test as parasofttest.ini. Settings from that file are used to initialize a clean workspace during startup.

Tip
titleTip - Other Ways to Configure Licenses

You can also configure licensing upon command line startup using -localsettingssettings. For details, see Licensing.

If you want to apply settings to an existing workspace, you need to add an additional property to the localsettings settings file: enforce.configure=true. This overrides existing settings during the first startup after the installation/reinstallation.
