Parasoft DTP (PDTP) is a development testing and software testing analytics tool from Parasoft that acts as a centralized hub for managing software quality and application security.[1] The software provides a dashboard which aggregates testing results and allows for compliance verification.

Overview

PDTP was introduced in 2009 as Parasoft Concerto.[2] [3] The platform generates software reports from routine software development tasks and compiles information from different software testing procedures to provide a summary of the software's codebase. It comes with built-in algorithms that perform various methods of analysis such as aggregated code coverage and change-based testing.[4]

Features include a user-configurable reporting system with APIs to input data from software development or testing tools, and the ability to integrate with third-party tools.[5] Reports may be used to monitor and analyze how software is being implemented across multiple builds and aggregated across all software testing practices.[6]

In 2012, VDC Research awarded PDTP the Software Embeddy for the 2012 DESIGN East show.[7]

PDTP includes pre-configured templates for:[8]

The templates combine automated testing with the process recommendations and requirements outlined in common guidelines.[9]
