Select the Unity installs that you want:

Get-UnitySetupInstance | Select-UnitySetupInstance -Latest
Get-UnitySetupInstance | Select-UnitySetupInstance -Version '2017.1.1f1'
Get-UnitySetupInstance | Select-UnitySetupInstance -Project '.\MyUnityProject'

Find all the Unity projects recursively:

Get-UnityProjectInstance -Recurse

# Example output:
# Version    Path                            ProductName
# -------    ----                            -----------

Launch the right Unity editor for a project:

Start-UnityEditor
Start-UnityEditor -Project .\MyUnityProject
Start-UnityEditor -Project .\MyUnityProject -Latest
Start-UnityEditor -Project .\MyUnityProject -Version '2017.3.0f3'

Using the Unity Accelerator:

Start-UnityEditor -Project .\MyUnityProject -CacheServerEndpoint 192.168.0.23 
Start-UnityEditor -Project .\MyUnityProject -CacheServerEndpoint 192.168.0.23:2523 -CacheServerNamespacePrefix "dev"
Start-UnityEditor -Project .\MyUnityProject -CacheServerEndpoint 192.168.0.23 -CacheServerNamespacePrefix "dev" -CacheServerDisableDownload
Start-UnityEditor -Project .\MyUnityProject -CacheServerEndpoint 192.168.0.23 -CacheServerDisableUpload

Launch many projects at the same time:

Get-UnityProjectInstance -Recurse | Start-UnityEditor

Invoke methods with arbitrary arguments:

Start-UnityEditor -ExecuteMethod Build.Invoke -BatchMode -Quit -LogFile .\build.log -Wait -AdditionalArguments "-BuildArg1 -BuildArg2"

Test the meta file integrity of Unity Projects:

Test-UnityProjectInstanceMetaFileIntegrity # Test project in current folder
Test-UnityProjectInstanceMetaFileIntegrity .\MyUnityProject
Test-UnityProjectInstanceMetaFileIntegrity -Project .\MyUnityProject
Get-UnityProjectInstance -Recurse | Test-UnityProjectInstanceMetaFileIntegrity

# Example output:
# True

Get meta file integrity issues for Unity Projects:

Test-UnityProjectInstanceMetaFileIntegrity .\MyUnityProject -PassThru

# Example output:

DSC

UnitySetup includes the xUnitySetupInstance DSC Resource. An example configuration might look like:

<#
    Install multiple versions of Unity and several components
#>
Configuration Sample_xUnitySetupInstance_Install {
    param(
        [PSCredential]$UnityCredential,
        [PSCredential]$UnitySerial
    )

    Import-DscResource -ModuleName UnitySetup

    Node 'localhost' {

        xUnitySetupInstance Unity {
            Versions = '2017.4.2f2,2018.1.0f2'
            Components = 'Windows', 'Mac', 'Linux', 'UWP', 'iOS'
            Ensure = 'Present'
        }

        xUnityLicense UnityLicense {
            Name = 'UL01'
            Credential = $UnityCredential
            Serial = $UnitySerial
            Ensure = 'Present'
            UnityVersion = '2017.4.2f2'
