In DevOps everything is code and in my world code needs to be tested and validated. But how do you test infrastructure as code, especially when you’re dealing with cloud infrastructure?

You want to ensure you are configuring all components correctly, all required fields are filled out and that you’re not exposing systems publicly that contain sensitive information. As cloud infrastructure becomes more mature, so have become the tools for testing.

In this session I’m going to discuss what are common testing design patterns for cloud infrastructure as code. I will also give examples on how you can test and validate infrastructure as code manually or in an automated CI pipeline.
