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

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).

Unit tests for hardened images
I gave it a read and nothing really stood out as being unreasonable unless you can point to specifics. Inspec is open source.
You can use something like inspec to do this.

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

Terraforming in 2021 – new features, testing and compliance
Before we dive into own cloud provider compliance checking services, we want to highlight yet another open source tool, namely InSpec. It allows you to write tests in ruby, and was built on top of RSpec. If you know already awsspec, then this should feel very similar, with the advantage that InSpec also supports GCP and Azure.
