Replacing my cassette

I've bought a new cassette and tools to change it myself (locking tool, and chain whip). I've never done this before. I don't have a torque wrench. How careful do I have to be when tightening the new cassette? Can I just tighten it until it feels tight, or should I get a torque wrench to be very accurate in how tight I make it? My thought now is just to tighten it until it feels tight and it will be OK. Apologizing in advance for my very novice question, I just want to make sure I don't over-tighten or under-tighten the new cassette, and I don't know how much tolerance there is in the amount it is tightened.Any advice is welcome.
