The configuration is performed by the Parasoft administrator and only needs to be set up once.

Connecting DTP to a DOORS Next Server

  1. Choose Report Center Settings from the settings (gear icon) menu.
  2. Choose External System, click Edit Settings, and choose DOORS Next from the System type menu.
  3. Enable the Enabled option.
  4. Enter a name for your instance of DOORS Next in the Name field. The name is required but does not affect the connection settings or render in any other interfaces.
  5. Enter the URL for the DOORS Next server in the Application URL field. The URL should include the protocol, host, and port number and it should point to the DOORS Next application on the Jazz server. For example: 
    • DOORS Next on-premises: https://doors70.acme.com:9443/rm (note the /rm suffix)
    • DOORS Next cloud: https://jazz.net/sandbox01-rm (note there is no /rm suffix)
  6. The Display URL field defines the URL which is displayed in Parasoft DTP pages when links to your DOORS Next system are presented in a web browser. Typically, this should be the same as the above Application URL field. However, it might be different, for example, when you work in a reverse proxy environment and links to DOORS Next from the user's local web browser with Parasoft DTP are different than from the Parasoft DTP server. 
  7. Enter login credentials in the Username and Password/API token fields. The login must have sufficient privileges to create issues in the DOORS Next projects specified in the Project Associations section.
  8. Click Test Connection to verify your settings and click Confirm.

Associating Parasoft Projects with DOORS Next Projects

Associating a Parasoft project with a DOORS Next project enables you to create defects from the Violations or Test Explorer views that are linked to the correct project in DOORS Next. The association is also important when using the Sending Test Data to External System flow. You can associate multiple projects in DTP with a project in DOORS Next, but you cannot associate the same DTP project with more than one DOORS Next project.

  1. Click Create Project Association and choose a project from the DTP Project menu in the overlay. 
  2. Enter the name of a DOORS Next project in the External Project field and click Create to save the association.

Click the trash icon to remove a project association. Deleting the project association does not remove links from DTP explorer views to defects in DOORS Next. If an association is deleted and recreated later, existing links between violations and DOORS Next issues will be reactivated. 

You can reconfigure an existing association between DTP and DOORS Next projects:

  1. Click the pencil icon and choose either a different DTP project from the menu or specify the name of a different DOORS Next project in the External Project field.
  2. Click Save.
