The new release of Parasoft dotTEST (2022.1) is now available!

OpenID Connect Support

You can now authenticate on DTP via OpenID Connect to add a layer of security to your interactions with your DTP server. See Configuring OpenID Connect in the UI and Configuring OpenID Connect in the .properties File for details. Depending on your requirements, two methods are available to authenticate on the OpenID Connect server from the command line: device code and certificate. Device code authentication is enabled by default.

dotTEST Container Image at Docker Hub

We've added support for deploying dotTEST in a Docker container image, which allows you to leverage dotTEST's capabilities in a containerized environment to ensure consistency across the team and multiple development cycles. You can download a ready to use dotTEST container image from Docker Hub: https://hub.docker.com/r/parasoft/dottest. See also Deploying dotTEST in a Docker Container.

Support for Razor and Blazor Files

We've added support for analyzing Razor and Blazor files in .NET and .NET Core frameworks. To analyze the files you need to use .NET 5.0 SDK or later. For further details, see Known Limitations.
