ChefConf Online 2020
Moving Security and Sanity Left by Testing Terraform with Chef InSpec
Annie Hedgpeth, Senior Cloud Automation Engineer
10th Magnitude
For those that have longed for a simpler test-driven approach to Terraform development, come and see how I've made my team's lives easier by using Test Kitchen for Terraform and how I can validate my deployments with InSpec. This will be a beginner's guide, but all skillsets are welcome to contribute to the conversation!
We'll discuss the different use cases for Terraform testing, such as:
Test Driven Development (TDD)
Integration Testing and CI/CD
Compliance, shifting security left
Production provisioning validation
As we know, good testing doesn't just solve CI/CD problems; it solves culture problems. I will seek to convince you of why you need to invest in a good Terraform testing strategy early and how you might have bought into a myth that makes you think you have velocity when you don't (are you running in wet cement).
And if you're late to the game and have existing infrastructure with no tests, that's okay, too. Let's talk about how you can reduce stress by adding in some testing now. It's not too late.
It takes an IT village to do DevOps, so let's talk about moving security and sanity left with InSpec and Terraform. So many use cases, and so little time. You'll leave this talk ready to implement at least one of them.

Nick Hudacin - Senior Systems Engineer, Relativity
We know that the right thing to do during cookbook development is to use cookstyle and foodcritic for linting, InSpec for integration tests, and Test Kitchen to test cookbook data across any combination of platforms and test suites. But how do we enforce this?
Part of the answer is to make the right thing to do the easy thing to do. The other part of the answer is to make the right thing to do the necessary thing.
This talk is meant to be an introduction to creating a continuous integration strategy for your cookbook development by using a cookbook build in Jenkins and integrating it with Git. Sprinkled throughout this talk will also be tips and tricks to using this simple build as a culture-change agent on your team and within your organization, slowly turning people's disdain for testing into a love affair with it.

Annie Hedgpeth, Cloud Automation Engineer at 10th Magnitude - ChefConf 2017
With the growing demand for developers, the IT industry is tasked with bringing more workers into the field. Stereotypes and ignorance are a major blocker to this initiative. With the shortage of security and compliance professionals combined with the industry's desire to move security left, it is dire that we think outside of the box to find a solution. My journey into technology (from a background in film and art) begins by learning the InSpec framework and creating a website and using version control for the first time to blog about my journey. I attained the skills necessary to become a cloud automation engineer in 4 months, and I am continuing the narrative into my consulting career by leveraging InSpec and moving security left.
