Examples
Ensure an update token is available.
describe aws_network_firewall_rule_group(rule_group_name: "RULE_GROUP_NAME") do
its('update_token') { should eq 'UPDATE_TOKEN' }
end
Ensure that the rule group arn is RuleGroupARN
.
describe aws_network_firewall_rule_group(rule_group_name: "RULE_GROUP_NAME") do
its('rule_group_response.rule_group_arn') { should eq 'ARN' }
end
Matchers
For a full list of available matchers, see our Universal Matchers page.The controls will pass if the describe
method returns at least one result.
exist
Use should
to test that the entity exists.
describe aws_network_firewall_rule_group(rule_group_name: "RULE_GROUP_NAME") do
it { should exist }
end
Use should_not
to test the entity does not exist.
describe aws_network_firewall_rule_group(rule_group_name: 'dummy') do
it { should_not exist }
end
be_available
Use should
to check if the entity is available.
describe aws_network_firewall_rule_group(rule_group_name: "RULE_GROUP_NAME") do
it { should be_available }
end
