awspec is a Ruby gem that lets you write RSpec tests for AWS resources, verifying their configuration and state. It provides a CLI for scaffolding specs and supports many AWS resource types, including integration with Terraform outputs.

Use cases

  • test that my EC2 instances are running with the right security groups
  • write RSpec tests for AWS infrastructure
  • verify VPC and subnet configuration with automated tests
  • validate AWS resources created by Terraform
  • check SQS queue settings in tests
  • infrastructure compliance testing for AWS

When to choose

  • you use Ruby/RSpec and want to test real AWS resource state
  • you need infrastructure tests that complement Terraform or CloudFormation
  • you want a large library of AWS resource type matchers

When to avoid

  • you use Python (consider moto or pytest-based tools)
  • you want policy-as-code compliance scanning rather than RSpec tests
  • you need to test non-AWS clouds
