+To check that the package works, set up a catkin workspace and clone the repository into the src/ folder. It should look like ~/catkin_ws/src/universal_robot. Don't forget to source the setup file ($ source ~/catkin_ws/devel/setup.*sh), then use catkin_make to compile.
+You can then start the driver with the following commands (start new terminals, don't forget to source the setup shell files):
+$ roslaunch ur_bringup ur5.launch robot_ip:=IP_OF_THE_ROBOT
+$ roscd ur_driver; ./test_move.py

+Remember that you should always have your hands on the big red button in case there is something in the way, or anything unexcpected happens.
