Stu WattsTesting infrastructure for configuration "drift" is hard. You can test for a desired good state (terratest, inspec, etc.) but testing for resources that shouldn't be present isn't a configuration management problem - I think it's more of an IAM problem. <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/configmanagement" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#configmanagement</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/cloud" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cloud</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/iam" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#iam</a>
