  • In my previous blog, How do you prove that your infrastructure is compliant. I explained how you can prove your infrastructure is compliant using CloudFormation Guard. But, how do you write those rules? And even more important, how do you test your rules? If you look at the repository CloudFormation Guard. You will notice that the project itself offers a testing framework. Alright! Let’s build a ruleset and write some tests for it!

  • cfn-guard-test

    This tool allows you to easily run your cfn-guard tests against your cfn-guard rules.

  • For this reason I created a python package called cfn-guard-test. This package makes it easier to run many rule/test sets. This is especially useful in the CI/CD pipelines.

  • InfluxDB
