InSpec: Inspect Your Infrastructure

Join the chat at https://gitter.im/chef/inspec

InSpec is an open-source testing framework for infrastructure with a human- and machine-readable language for specifying compliance, security and policy requirements.

# Disallow insecure protocols by testing

describe package('telnetd') do
  it { should_not be_installed }
end

describe inetd_conf do
  its("telnet") { should eq nil }
end

InSpec makes it easy to run your tests wherever you need.

# run test locally
inspec exec test.rb

# run test on remote host on SSH
inspec exec test.rb -t ssh://user@hostname

# run test on remote windows host on WinRM
inspec exec test.rb -t winrm://Administrator@windowshost --password 'your-password'

# run test on docker container
inspec exec test.rb -t docker://container_id

Features

  • Built-in Compliance: Compliance no longer occurs at the end of the release cycle
  • Targeted Tests: InSpec writes tests that specifically target compliance issues
  • Metadata: Includes the metadata required by security and compliance pros
  • Easy Testing: Includes a command-line interface to run tests quickly

Installation

InSpec requires Ruby ( >1.9 ).

Install it via rubygems.org

gem install inspec

Install it from source

That requires bundler:

bundle install
bundle exec bin/inspec help

To install it as a gem locally, run:

gem build inspec.gemspec
gem install inspec-*.gem

On Windows, you need to install Ruby with Ruby Development Kit to build dependencies with its native extensions.

Run InSpec

You should now be able to run:

$ inspec --help
Commands:
  inspec archive PATH                # archive a profile to tar.gz (default) ...
  inspec check PATH                  # verify all tests at the specified PATH
  inspec compliance SUBCOMMAND ...   # Chef Compliance commands
  inspec detect                      # detect the target OS
  inspec exec PATH(S)                # run all test files at the specified PATH.
  inspec help [COMMAND]              # Describe available commands or one spe...
  inspec init TEMPLATE ...           # Scaffolds a new project
  inspec json PATH                   # read all tests in PATH and generate a ...
  inspec shell                       # open an interactive debugging shell
  inspec supermarket SUBCOMMAND ...  # Supermarket commands
  inspec version                     # prints the version of this tool

Options:
  [--diagnose], [--no-diagnose]  # Show diagnostics (versions, configurations)

Examples

  • Only accept requests on secure ports - This test ensures that a web server is only listening on well-secured ports.
describe port(80) do
  it { should_not be_listening }
end

describe port(443) do
  it { should be_listening }
  its('protocols') {should include 'tcp'}
end
  • Use approved strong ciphers - This test ensures that only enterprise-compliant ciphers are used for SSH servers.
describe sshd_config do
   its('Ciphers') { should eq('chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com,aes256-ctr,aes192-ctr,aes128-ctr') }
end
  • Test your kitchen.yml file to verify that only Vagrant is configured as the driver.
describe yaml('.kitchen.yml') do
  its('driver.name') { should eq('vagrant') }
end

Also have a look at our examples for:

Command Line Usage

exec

Run tests against different targets:

# run test locally
inspec exec test.rb

# run test on remote host on SSH
inspec exec test.rb -t ssh://user@hostname

# run test on remote windows host on WinRM
inspec exec test.rb -t winrm://Administrator@windowshost --password 'your-password'

# run test on docker container
inspec exec test.rb -t docker://container_id

# run with sudo
inspec exec test.rb --sudo [--sudo-password ...] [--sudo-options ...]

detect

Verify your configuration and detect

id=$( docker run -dti ubuntu:14.04 /bin/bash )
inspec detect -t docker://$id

Which will provide you with:

{"family":"ubuntu","release":"14.04","arch":null}

Testing InSpec

We perform unit, resource and integration tests.

  • unit tests ensure the intended behaviour of the implementation
  • resource tests run against docker containers
  • integration tests run against VMs via test-kitchen and kitchen-inspec

Unit tests

bundle exec rake test

If you like to run only one test, use

bundle exec ruby -W -Ilib:test test/unit/resources/user_test.rb

Resource tests

Resource tests make sure the backend execution layer behaves as expected. These tests will take a while, as a lot of different operating systems and configurations are being tested.

You will require:

  • docker

Run resource tests with

bundle exec rake test:resources config=test/test.yaml
bundle exec rake test:resources config=test/test-extra.yaml

Integration tests

These tests download various virtual machines, to ensure InSpec is working as expected across different operating systems.

You will require:

  • vagrant with virtualbox
  • test-kitchen

Run integration tests with vagrant:

cd test/integration
bundle exec kitchen test

Run integration tests with AWS EC2:

export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=enteryouryourkey
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=enteryoursecreykey
export AWS_KEYPAIR_NAME=enteryoursshkeyid
export EC2_SSH_KEY_PATH=~/.ssh/id_aws.pem
cd test/integration
KITCHEN_LOCAL_YAML=.kitchen.ec2.yml bundle exec kitchen test

In addition you may need to add your ssh key to .kitchen.ec2.yml

transport:
  ssh_key: /Users/chartmann/aws/aws_chartmann.pem
  username: ec2-user
