A directory under parasoft/virtualize/<VERSION>  (Linux) or or parasoft/virtualize/<VERSION>/ParasoftVirtualizeParasoft Virtualize.app/Contents/ParasoftVirtualizeEclipse (Mac) will be created. We refer to this location as <VIRTUALIZE_INSTALL_DIR> throughout this user guide. The Virtualize executable, command line interface, examples, manuals, and so on are available within this directory.

titleAccessing Application Contents on MacOS

After installation is completed, an application icon will be added in Finder. This is the icon that you double-click to launch Virtualize. If you want to view the various files and folders available within the installation, right-click the icon, and choose Show Package Contents. 

Info
titleHTML content in Ubuntu Linux

When using latest Ubuntu Linux (21.10 or newer), with Snap-based Firefox browser as default, the Eclipse IDE may be unable to show HTML content correctly (see also: https://github.com/eclipse-platform/eclipse.platform.swt/issues/221). There are two workarounds:

  • Install a non-Snap version of Firefox (or other browser) and set it as a default system browser.
  • Configure Eclipse to use "external web browser" in Preferences > General > Web Browser > External web browsers.

Note: In order to configure Firefox as an external web browser, use the following settings:
Location: /usr/bin/env
Parameters: firefox %URL%
