What is CAT PowerShell module?

I want to try CAT, but - what actually is CAT PowerShell module?

PowerShell in general is cool for automation. If you already use PowerShell 7 or later, this is the recommended way to go. If not, we encourage you to give it a try.

Main advantages:

Ease of installation
Basically you just run Install-Module CAT and you are done.
Ease of use
Even if you are not experienced PowerShell user, you will be able to run the tests (simply run Invoke-CatProject in the directory where your project file is)
Further automation
CAT is a PowerShell module - you can use all the bells and whistles of PowerShell. All the results are objects - easily filter them, group them, sort them… Ideal if you need to automate further processes based on test results.

When you should NOT use PowerShell module:

  • if you struggle to issue basic commands in a command line (use CAT studio instead)

  • if you can’t or don’t want to use PowerShell 7 (use CAT CLI instead)

Supported platforms:

  • MS Windows
  • Linux
