This readme file explains how to use poetry to install dependencies and how to run pytest. Additionally, it will provide an explanation of the Python code included in this file.
If you're looking to take your tftest skills further, check out my latest blog post. I walk you through the thought process behind writing effective tftest scripts and share some tips and tricks for testing real resources. Plus, I cover how to test state files and changes in resources. Follow the link to level up your testing game! blog
Pytest is a testing framework for Python that allows you to easily write and run tests for your code. To run pytest, navigate to the root directory of your project and run the following command:
pytest test_my_module.pyThis will run all test functions in test_my_module.py file.
This code is a simple example of using the tftest library with pytest to test a Terraform module. It includes two fixtures, 'plan' and 'apply_output', which create a Terraform plan and apply it respectively, using different tfvars files as parameters. The 'test_variables' and 'test_outputs' tests check for the presence of certain variables and outputs in the plan, while 'test_apply' tests that the apply output contains the correct number of files. Lastly, 'test_file_content' checks that the files created by the apply contain the string "file content". Overall, this code demonstrates how to use tftest to perform automated tests on Terraform modules.
