rspec-terraspace

Terraspec rspec helper methods. The usual testing process is:

1. Build a test harness. The test harness is a generated terraspace project with the specified modules and stacks.
2. Runs a terraspace up (terraform apply) to create real resources.
3. Check the resources. In this case, it simply checks for the terraform output.
4. Runs a terraspace down (terraform destroy) to clean up the real resources.

Where is the generated test harness located?

The test hardness is materialized in /tmp/terraspace/test-harnesses/NAME by default. The build root can be controlled with TS_RSPEC_BUILD_ROOT env var.

So if you set it: export TS_RSPEC_BUILD_ROOT=~/environment/terraspace-test-harnesses. It will be built at ~/environment/terraspace-test-harnesses/NAME instead.

The test helpers support both module-level and project-level tests. See:

• Terraspace Testing

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
