This topic explains how to install the Parasoft Plugin for Visual Studio.

Installing the Parasoft Plugin

To install the Parasoft Plugin for Visual Studio:

  1. Go to the <INSTALL_DIR>/integration/vstudio directory.
  2. Run the parasoft_plugin_<version>_vstudio.exe installer and follow the installation wizard.
  3. Read and accept the Parasoft End User License Agreement (EULA) when prompted.
  4. Select the Visual Studio version to which you want to install the Parasoft Plugin. You can select more than one version, if installed on your machine.
  5. Specify the location where you want to install the Parasoft Plugin.
  6. Select the Visual Studio configuration where you want to install the Parasoft Plugin. By default, the Parasoft Plugin is installed in the main Visual Studio configuration. You can install the Parasoft Plugin in a different Visual Studio configuration by providing a registry key suffix.
  7. Specify the location in the Start Menu where you want to add a shortcut to the Parasoft Plugin.

  8. Click Install.

Note that if another Parasoft tool has already been integrated with your Visual Studio, running the Parasoft Plugin installer will launch the reinstallation/removal wizard. If this happens, select Reinstall and proceed with the wizard. This allows you to use the Parasoft Plugin for Visual studio to perform code analysis with two Parasoft tools. See Can I use Parasoft dotTEST and Parasoft C/C++test in the same Visual Studio IDE? for details.
