  You need to manually install pester, it is in the documentation for this to be done as it was removed from Auto-Install due to incompatabilities with Pester 5

   

  As such please run

  Install-Module -Name Pester -RequiredVersion 4.10.0

   

  Then invoke the check again.

  Best place for anything dbachecks/dbatools related is the SQL Slack Community (https://join.slack.com/t/sqlcommunity/shared_invite/zt-f7piwkw2-5aHYk050HDV2RjB9OdaOYw), or the two GitHub pages
