terraform-test-coverage

terraform-test-coverage is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from infraspecdev/tesseract. It costs 35 tokens per session (866 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of terraform-test-coverage, MIT.

A guide for reviewing tests written with Terraform's built-in test framework, using .tftest.hcl files. It checks whether infrastructure components cover normal inputs, validation rules, failures, and important resource changes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to assess existing Terraform tests or design new plan-only tests with mock providers and assertions.
Why use it?
It helps reveal untested Terraform variables, resources, feature flags, and failure cases before release. It is focused on test coverage, not formatting or security audits.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

terraform-test-coverage scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Terraform Test Coverage Assessment

Overview

Test quality assessment for Terraform components using the native terraform test framework (.tftest.hcl files). Evaluates coverage across 6 dimensions and provides patterns for mock_provider, override_resource, and plan-only assertions.

When to Use

  • Reviewing existing .tftest.hcl files for coverage gaps
  • Designing new tests for a Terraform component
  • After adding new variables, resources, or feature flags
  • Assessing whether a component is adequately tested before release

When NOT to Use

  • For non-native test frameworks (Terratest, kitchen-terraform)
  • For syntax or formatting checks -- use terraform validate / terraform fmt
  • For security auditing -- use the terraform-security-audit skill
  • For module API design or variable naming reviews
  • When the component has no .tftest.hcl files and you are not asked to create them

Coverage Dimensions

Assess each component against these 6 dimensions (see test-patterns.md for HCL examples):

  1. Happy Path -- run block with command = plan, valid inputs, assertions on key resource attributes
  2. Variable Validation -- Every validation block has a test using expect_failures
  3. Feature Toggles -- Every enable/disable flag tested in both states
  4. Edge Cases -- Boundary values, empty collections, single-AZ, all features disabled
  5. CIDR Math -- Subnet CIDRs do not overlap, fit within VPC CIDR, correct AZ distribution (N/A for non-networking)
  6. Naming Conventions -- Name tags and environment/stage propagate consistently

Workflow

  1. Discover tests: Find all .tftest.hcl files in the component
  2. Inventory variables: Read variables.tf to list all required variables, validation blocks, and feature toggle flags
  3. Map coverage: For each run block, determine which dimension(s) it covers
  4. Identify gaps: Cross-reference dimensions against existing tests. Flag missing coverage
  5. Assess quality: Check assertion depth -- tests should verify specific attributes, not just "plan succeeds"
  6. Produce report: Use the template from templates.md

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
