After installing docker successfully, and installing taskCat using docker,

$ curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/aws-quickstart/taskcat/master/installer/docker-installer.sh | sh

When i run the below command $ taskcat -c /ci/taskcat.yml

I get an error "bash: taskcat: command not found"

It may help to include the command you used to install taskcat. The problem here is clearly that either 1.) you did not in fact install taskcat, or 2.) bash doesn't know where you installed taskcat. - MyStackRunnethOver

Do a whereis taskcat, or use the find command or locate command to find the install location of the taskcat command. The path variable for taskcat has not been setup, that maybe a reason why it says command not found.

Some commands get installed in the homedirectory/bin folder, this path is not included by default in the PATH variable. You can do export PATH=$PATH:/home/myuserdir/bin to solve this issue.
