OpenAI Integration

Parasoft Jtest introduces seamless integration with OpenAI and Azure OpenAI, enhancing its testing capabilities. You can now utilize your OpenAI or Azure OpenAI account to generate recommended fixes for static analysis violations and improvements for unit tests using natural-language instructions. These features enable you to efficiently resolve static analysis violations or customize your test scenarios according to your requirements.
The Generate Suggested fix for... action in the IDE uses generative AI to provide analysis of a reported static analysis violation in the context of the associated code as well as an AI-generated suggested fix to resolve the violation. For details, see Generating a Suggested Fix.
The Improve [method_name] with AI action available in the Unit Test Assistant view allows you to request your OpenAI provider to generate updates or enhancements for a selected test based on user-provided natural language instructions. For details, see Improving Tests with AI.
To use this functionality, OpenAI must first be configured in the Parasoft Preferences. See Configuring OpenAI Settings.

Unit Test Assistant Enhancements

Test case creation has been improved, with better consideration of boundary conditions.
Support for primitive type arrays initialization and Optional class method calls has been improved.

Previously, test impact analysis workflows only supported using a baseline report where this metadata was collected by scanning application binaries.

The Security Compliance Pack has been extended by adding support for the following test configurations:

The shipped JRE has been upgraded to version 11.0.21.
Visual Studio Code users can now configure the mapping of Jtest severity levels (1-5) to VS Code severity levels (Error/Warning/Information/Hint) and filter the violations inside VS Code based on Jtest severities using a text pattern.
It is now possible to suppress a finding in the next line. See Next Line Suppression.
Support for Gradle 8.x has been added.
Support for Lombok 1.18.28 and 1.18.30 has been added.
It is now possible to automatically remove jtestcli and the JRE included with Jtest from quarantine to allow their execution on Mac OS. See How to remove jtestcli and JRE from quarantine to allow their execution on Mac OS?.
