Ruby: "the best" language for general automation
The course uses Chef Inspec, an open source Ruby DSL. I made a POC with this tool to automatically check repositories on GitHub, checks like if it contains a gitignore consistent with the language used, if node_modules is not present, etc.
- what tool do you use for validating hardening settings have been applied. this is for security and hardening purposes. for example, ensure that admin username is not default username, password is at least 12 characters with upper, lower and special characters, https is enabled etc

Why do you guys think testing is not a very prominent topic in the cloud native community ?
We are using Inspec to double check that the changes are indeed what we expect them to be. If anyone knows a better tool, please share

Is there any kind of Pester Server for infrastructure tests?
https://github.com/inspec/inspec Chef Inspec is probably a great tool for what you’re trying to do. Great at building human readable test cases for validation of infrastructure deployments. At a different org I used to use PoSh, Terraform and Ansible etc. for deploying on-prem and cloud infrastructure and then Inspec for testing for successful deployments, security misconfigurations (is a port open that shouldn’t be etc).

Automated Configuration Analysis?
If you need the monitoring for compliance reason, Chef InSpec was designed for this exact usecase.

Structure Testing for Docker Containers
Container Structure Tests (CST) is a container-testing tool developed by Google and open-sourced with the Apache 2.0 license. CST comes with a predefined set of tests for looking at what’s actually inside a container image.

Docker unit test: how to test a Dockerfile (Guide 2020)
The best tool I can raccomand to write a unit test for a Docker is the Container Structure Test framework. This framework, developed by Google, makes super easy to test the structure of your container image.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing inspec and container-structure-test you can also consider the following projects:

awspec - RSpec tests for your AWS resources.
semaphore-demo-ruby-kubernetes - A Semaphore demo CI/CD pipeline for Kubernetes.
checkov - Prevent cloud misconfigurations and find vulnerabilities during build-time in infrastructure as code, container images and open source packages with Checkov by Bridgecrew.
ansible-collection-hardening - This Ansible collection provides battle tested hardening for Linux, SSH, nginx, MySQL
conftest - Write tests against structured configuration data using the Open Policy Agent Rego query language
OSCAL - Open Security Controls Assessment Language (OSCAL)
tfsec - Security scanner for your Terraform code [Moved to: https://github.com/aquasecurity/tfsec]
ansible-hardening - Ansible role for security hardening. Mirror of code maintained at opendev.org.
