Important
This repository is for Maester 2.x only. Maester 3.0 doesn't need it.
From Maester 3.0 the tests ship inside the Maester PowerShell module, so you don't need a copy of this repository, a tests folder or Install-MaesterTests. Install the module and run Invoke-Maester. For CI, your repository only needs the pipeline file and, if you want them, a maester-config.json and a custom folder for your own tests.
This repository keeps its 2.x content so that existing 2.x pipelines keep working. It is not updated for 3.0 and will be archived after 3.0 has been out for a release cycle. See Upgrading from 2.x to move to 3.0.
This is a starter repository of Maester tests that you can clone to get started with Maester.
