# How to get started?


Before you jump in, we need to know what is your favorite environment. CAT can work for you as a PowerShell module, a command-line interface (without dependency on PowerShell) or as a GUI application for MS Windows. If you are not sure, choose CAT studio.

The "get started" tutorials will guide you through:

* **Installation** - takes a few seconds, does not require admin permissions
* **Exploring CAT** - you'll be able to run CAT tests without a need to connect to your data
* **Setup your first test** - because you'll most likely want to automate first test for yourself, against your data
