# Setting up UiPath for Coding Agents

> Install the Test Manager tool so your coding agent can run uip tm commands to publish automations, generate reports, and bring in Playwright suites.

Set up a coding agent to work with Test Manager through `uip tm` commands.

## Prerequisites

* UiPath CLI installed and authenticated. See [Install and set up](https://docs.uipath.com/coding-agents/standalone/latest/user-guide/install-and-set-up) in the Coding Agents documentation.
* UiPath skills installed for your coding agent. See [Install and set up](https://docs.uipath.com/coding-agents/standalone/latest/user-guide/install-and-set-up) for the install command per agent.
* If you plan to bring in an existing Playwright suite, Playwright must already be installed locally in that project using npm (a `package-lock.json` must be present). This flow packages the suite as-is and does not install Playwright for you.

## Steps

1. Install the Test Manager tool:

   ```bash
   uip tools install @uipath/test-manager-tool
   ```

   Or invoke any `uip tm` command and let auto-install run.

   :::note
   After a CLI upgrade, run `uip skills update --agent <name>` to pick up newly published Test Manager skills.
   :::

## Result

Your coding agent can run `uip tm` commands. Three skills are available through the `uipath-test` skill bundle:

| Skill | What it does |
|---|---|
| **Publish and link automation** | Packs a UiPath project, uploads it to Orchestrator, and binds it to a test case so it can be triggered from Test Manager. |
| **Test report generation** | Fetches test executions from a test set and generates a persona-tailored report for quality assurance (QA) engineers, developers, and Release Managers. |
| **Bring an existing Playwright suite into Test Manager** | Brings an existing Playwright suite into Test Manager end to end (no code changes) and reports pass, fail, and skip results, including a fix-and-re-run loop for failures. |

For details about bringing in a Playwright suite, see [Playwright test automation with the uipath-test skill](https://docs.uipath.com/coding-agents/standalone/latest/user-guide/build-test-playwright).
