Make is easier to test/preview a website when you have multiple sites on an IP.
The "preview" function doesn't work with Wordpress. Setting up a subdomain is complicated. Modifying localhost file is a ridiculous solution.

This feature is already implemented in the upcoming Plesk 12.1 release. We encourage you to check the implementation in one of upcoming Plesk previews and let us know what you think.

The problem here is not Plesk's fault.
The problem is that WordPress uses the hostname from the HTTP request to further process the request.This cannot be fixed by Parallels.
I believe the following might help here, although not user friendly.
