Parasoft DTP enables teams to configure or update team-wide settings, such as license and report settings, and propagate them across the team’s Parasoft installations. 

Connecting to DTP also enables you to automatically can send reports to the Report Center quality analytics module, where you can review testing data within the context of all your quality activities. It correlates data sent from Parasoft SOtest to other quality and compliance data, providing visibility and control into the software development process and the products it is delivering.

You should connect all desktop installations to DTP if your team intends to use DTP to share settings across products and view test and analysis data. At least one installation of Parasoft SOAtest, typically the designated server that runs nightly tests, should be connected with reporting enabled.

Choose Parasoft> Preferences to open the Preferences dialog and select DTP.

You can configure the following settings.
