Filtering for Unnecessary Parasoft Suppressions
Is there a tool or setting to enable that will report whether previously existing parasoft suppressions are still necessary to have? This would be checked after code changes have been applied to lines of code that were being suppressed before.
Parasoft DTP not receiving C++ coverage metrics
I am executing unit test from the cpptestcli and have configured the properties file to report metrics to the DTP server. I know the configuration is correct as Static Analysis and basic line coverage metrics are reported to the DTP. However, advanced coverage types such as MC/DC do not show any results. The test…

Configure Proxy for DTP
Hello, I am using the C/C++Test commandline tool, and I have configured the cpptestcli.properties file to connect to a DTP server. Unfortunately, a connection is not possible, as the server is only reachable through a proxy. I searched for proxy settings, but found only proxy configurations for the used JRE…
C: return in macro doesn't seem to be considered
Hi, I am running Parasoft for MISRA. Following a simplified code example: define RC(func) \ do { \ rc_t rc_ = func; \ if is_error(rc_) return rc_; } while (0) struct info_t { rc_t (*handler)(); }; rc_t caller() { struct info_t info = {0}; RC(called_function(&info)); // From this point, info is well initialized by the…

How do you stub a function to return a different value each time it's called in a single test
I've got a function with the following code: if (ext_test() == true) { ext_mod(); if (ext_test() == true) { ext_in(); } ext_out();} and I need to make a test that executes out_func() BUT NOT in_func() (the ext_test(), ext_mod(), ext_in() and ext_out() functions access data outside the function; I didn't design this BTW,…
How to add a stub for a Class member function?
For example, class A has a public function foo(). class A { public: int Foo(); } I add the stub like this: void CppTest_Stub_Foo() { CPPTEST_STUB_CALLED("A::Foo"); int __return = 0; if (CPPTEST_STUB_HAS_CALLBACK()) { CPPTEST_STUB_CALLBACK(int __return, const A __this); CPPTEST_STUB_INVOKE_CALLBACK(&__return, this); } } But…
AUTOSAR A7-1-3 - False positive on "const" qualifier

How does cpptestcli choose MSVC compiler and the purpose of compiler configuration files
Hi all, I am trying to understand the behaviour and relationship of cpptestcli with Microsoft Visual C++ (MSVC) compiler. My question is: * How does Parasoft choose the default MSVC compiler to use? When specifying the compiler configuration using the -compiler property, specifying vc_14_2-64 (64 bit version of compiler)…
Why does the C/C++ test link to files not in scope when running unit test (file scope)?
I am following the instructions at this link: https://docs.parasoft.com/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=134835090 I am doing a unit test only on a single file selected in the project explorer. I am creating stubs for this file and then running unit test. However, on executing run unit test (file scope), the C/C++ test is…
AUTOSAR A2-7-3 - False positive on implementation
I'm using Parasoft C++Test Professional 2023.1 and I'm getting false positives on AUTOSAR Rule A2-7-3 which states that "Every declaration needs to provide a proper documentation." The false positives happen when a function is declared in a .hpp file, while being defined/implemented in the corresponding .cpp file, but it…
Report generation with a list of suppressions
I want to include a list of suppressions in the report. When i am running c/c++ from eclipse and enable the 'Supressions Details' option the report contains a list of suppressions.

How to create a rule using RuleWizard to identify a comparison operator?
I am creating a Parasoft rule for C/C++test using RuleWizard that flags whenever a type std::string is used as an argument within certain function calls. For example, this line should be a violation since it uses the variable 'mytestString' without a call to .c_str() LOG_TRACE(7, "ParasoftTestProj::main() Some TRACE…
How to create a rule in RuleWizard to check if the filename contains the foldername?
I want to create a rule that checks if a filename contains the foldername at the beginning of the file, for example: I have a folder named "folder1" containing a folder named "folder2" which contains a c file. This file should be named: "folder1_folder2_myFile.c" Is it possible to create such a rule with the rule wizard?
