- To access the full functionality available with the Server Edition, you also need to install and configure Parasoft Team Server.
- We strongly recommend that you configure C++test preferences (for Team Server, task assignment, reporting, etc.) and team Test Configurations as described in the Configuration before you start testing.
For command line execution, you will need to ensure that the installation directory is on the path, or launch cpptest with the full path to the executable (for example,
c:\parasoft\c++test\cpptestcli.exe).Conditional Content IDE: (VS) IDE: (VS) sv-attr:0A0102040159A975064F0FA35093CF15 0A0102040159A9821F79B94259645A41 Before you can test code with C++test, it must be added to a Visual Studio project. See Creating a Project.
- Before you perform the initial test, we strongly recommend that you review and modify project options. For details on how to do this, see Local Settings (Options) Files.

- The repository(n).vss.ssdir property should contain a UNC value even if the repository database resides locally.
- Be aware of VSS Naming Syntax, Conventions and Limitations. Any character can be used for names or labels, except the following:
- Dollar sign ($)
- At sign (@)
- Angle brackets (< >), brackets ([ ]), braces ({ }), and parentheses (( ))
- Colon (:) and semicolon (;)
- Equal sign (=)
- Caret sign (^)
- Exclamation point (!)
- Percent sign (%)
- Question mark (?)
- Comma (,)
- Quotation mark (single or double) (' ")
- VSS 6.0 (build 8163), which is deployed with Visual Studio 6, does not work properly with projects whose names start with a dot (.) symbol. If such a project name is used, subprojects cannot be added.
- Do not use custom working directories for sub-projects (example:
Project $/SomeProjecthas the working directoryC:\TEMP\VSS\SomeProjectand its subproject$/SomeProject/SomeSubProjecthas the working directoryD:\SomeSubProject).
