Parasoft DTP (formerly Parasoft Concerto) is a development testing and software testing analytics solution from Parasoft that acts as a centralized hub for managing software quality and application security.[1] DTP provides traditional software reports from normal software development activities and is also able to aggregate data from various software testing practices to present an overview of the state of the codebase.

DTP comes with built-in algorithms that perform various analytics such as aggregated code coverage and change-based testing.[2]

DTP's web-based UI provides interactive reports and dashboards, including a user-configurable reporting system with APIs to put data in from any software development or testing tool. The reports in DTP give developers and QA team members the ability to monitor and track how the software is being implemented across multiple builds and aggregated across all software testing practices.[3]

Overview[edit]

Parasoft DTP was originally known as Parasoft Concerto[4] and integrates with third-party tools.[5] It was introduced in 2009.[6] In 2012 DTP won the "Best of Show" Embeddy award from VDC Research.[7]

It includes pre-configured templates for:[8]

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