Parasoft has published official Docker images to Docker Hub for your convenience. There are two versions available, one with Extension Designer and one without. Follow the link below that best suits your needs:
Parasoft has published an official Helm chart to Docker Hub for your convenience. Full installation instructions are included in the readme. See https://hub.docker.com/r/parasoft/dtp-helm.
Before you start, establish an external database for DTP. You may create a new, empty database or provide an existing one. In either case, a database user must be set up with any necessary permissions required to access the database. Supported databases are MySQL, Oracle, and PostgreSQL (for supported versions, see Requirements and Support). You can use one of the MySQL, Oracle, or PostgreSQL Docker images available on Docker Hub.
Then create a namespace for DTP to run in. For example:
kubectl create namespace parasoft-dtp-namespace |
Note: The namespace name "parasoft-dtp-namespace" is used throughout this documentation in command and resource examples. If you use a different name for your namespace, be sure to change any instances of "parasoft-dtp-namespace" in those examples to your namespace name.
Once DTP has been licensed, deleting the namespace will invalidate machine-locked licenses, even if you recreate the same namespace. |
Next, you will need a Kubernetes cluster. After starting the cluster, create the service account and permissions required by the DTP pod and related resources. An example of a yaml file that might be used to for this purpose is shown below.
# Stable access for clients to license server apiVersion: v1 kind: ServiceAccount metadata: name: parasoft-account namespace: parasoft-dtp-namespace automountServiceAccountToken: true --- apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1 kind: Role metadata: name: parasoft-read namespace: parasoft-dtp-namespace rules: - apiGroups: - "" resources: - "namespaces" - "pods" verbs: - get --- apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1 kind: RoleBinding metadata: name: parasoft-read-bind namespace: parasoft-dtp-namespace roleRef: apiGroup: rbac.authorization.k8s.io kind: Role name: parasoft-read subjects: - kind: ServiceAccount name: parasoft-account namespace: parasoft-dtp-namespace |
Use your yaml file to create the required service account and permissions before creating the DTP environment:
kubectl create -f parasoft-permissions.yaml |
You should see something similar to the output below in your console:
serviceaccount/parasoft-account created role.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/parasoft-read created rolebinding.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/parasoft-read-bind created |
Yaml files with |
To set up DTP, create a yaml file that defines the following:
Example yaml files for a Pod or a StatefulSet (both called "parasoft-dtp.yaml") are shown below. These examples use an NFS volume, but this is not required; use whatever volume type fits your needs.
As you modify either of the dtp-pod.yaml samples shown below or craft your own yaml, be aware that the following fields need to be consistent across upgrades and redeployments in order to assure a stable machine ID:
In addition, the following environment variables are required:

Create the service that can be used to access the DTP server in Kubernetes. The example shown below exposes it using a node port, which provides a stable endpoint for applications to access it.
apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
name: dtp-svc
namespace: parasoft-dtp-namespace
spec:
type: NodePort
selector:
app: DTP
ports:

protocol: TCP
port: 8080
nodePort: 30080
- name: "dc-port"
protocol: TCP
port: 8082
nodePort: 30082
- name: "dtp-https-port"
protocol: TCP
port: 8443
nodePort: 30443
# Uncomment section below if using DTP with Extension Designer
# - name: "dep-port"
# protocol: TCP
# port: 8314
# nodePort: 30314
# SERVICE CONFIG NOTES:
# 'name' can be whatever you want, but must follow the DNS label naming conventions
# 'nodePort' must be between 30000-32768
# 'spec.selector' must match 'metadata.labels' in pod config |
DTP startup can take up to two minutes, assuming that minimum hardware requirements are met. During the startup time, DTP will not be accessible from the browser. |
Prepare the volume mount location on your cluster. By default, the image runs as the "parasoft" user with a UID of 1000 and GID of 1000. Prepare the volume such that this user has read and write access to it.
Then create the DTP environment defined in the DTP setup yaml file created previously:
kubectl create -f parasoft-dtp.yaml |
This will initialize the contents of the persistent volume.
If you injected any environment variables such as JVM arguments or database configuration settings, you can use the following command to verify their status:
kubectl exec <POD_NAME> -c <CONTAINER_NAME> -- printenv |
To allow external access to DTP, Data Collector, and/or Extension Designer in your cluster, use Ingress, an OpenShift route, or an equivalent resource set up to function as a reverse proxy as described in Reverse Proxy Support. If you are using DTP with Extension Designer, you will need to update the Reverse Proxy settings in Extension Designer to reflect the expected hostname and the exposed ports for accessing DTP and Extension Designer.
The structure of your database URL depends on how your external database is accessed. For example:
jdbc:mysql://<DB_HOST>:3306/DTP.jdbc:mysql://<CONFIGURED-SERVICE-NAME>.<NAMESPACE>:3306/DTP.If you want to set up a custom keystore, you will need to create a configuration map for the .keystore and server.xml files. The command below creates a configuration map called "keystore-cfgmap" with file mappings for the custom .keystore and server.xml files. In this example, each file mapping is given a key: "keystore" for the .keystore file and "server-config" for the server.xml file. While giving each file mapping a key is not necessary, it is useful when you don't want the key to be the file name.
~$ kubectl create configmap keystore-cfgmap --from-file=keystore=/path/to/.keystore --from-file=server-config=/path/to/server.xml configmap/keystore-cfgmap created |
Note: The custom server.xml being used in a configuration map may need to be updated manually when upgrading to a newer DTP Docker image. Any required changes for a given version will be documented in its release notes. Be sure to check all the release notes between your current version and the one to which you are upgrading.
Using a custom truststore in Kubernetes environments is similar to using a custom keystore as described above. Adjust the directions for using a custom keystore as appropriate. Note that the truststore location is /usr/local/parasoft/dtp/jre/lib/security/cacerts.
If your security policy requires applications to only write to mounted volumes, then in addition to the dtp-data directory (which is already set in the example pod) you will need to mount the following locations for the specified containers:
dtp-server:
/usr/local/parasoft/dtp/tomcat/temp /usr/local/parasoft/dtp/tomcat/logs /usr/local/parasoft/dtp/tomcat/work /usr/local/parasoft/dtp/tomcat/conf/PST /usr/local/parasoft/dtp/tomcat/conf/Internal |
extension-designer (if enabled):
/tmp |
Notes:
/usr/local/parasoft/data-tmp. You can ignore errors related to data-tmp like "rm: cannot remove '/usr/local/parasoft/data-tmp/LicenseServer/conf/licserv.enc': Read-only file system" in the Kubernetes logs.You can configure an OIDC secret for DTP. To do so:

DTP captures debugging logs automatically. You can access them in the tests.log file found in the <DTP_DATA_DIR>/logs/ directory.
This issue can occur when there is an underlying permission issue. To resolve it, try the following options:
<DTP_DATA_DIR>/logs/ directory for the error: "Kubernetes API call fails with status=403 error".automountServiceAccountToken to false.
