Let your coding agent set up TesterArmy for you using the CLI.

1. Create an account

Sign up at tester.army.

2. Install and authenticate the CLI

$npm install -g testerarmy
$ta agent init
$ta auth
$ta status --json

Generate a key in the API Keys dashboard and paste it when prompted. The CLI stores it locally for future commands.

3. Prompt your agent

Use TesterArmy CLI (`ta`) to set up QA for this project. Start with
`ta docs --json`, create a project, create a saved test, run it, and report the
commands, run ID, result, and artifacts. Use `--json` for automation.

The agent will create the project, draft tests, and execute them - without you leaving your editor. See Agentic Usage for the full workflow.

Congrats! You successfully created and executed your very first test!

Testing is all about consistency, you should set up Production Monitoring or PR Testing to guarantee everything keeps working.
