# aws\_iam\_user

|
Use the `aws_iam_user` InSpec audit resource to test properties of a single AWS IAM user.

|
|
|
To test properties of more than one user, use the `aws_iam_users` resource.
|
|
|
|
To test properties of the special AWS root user (which owns the account), use the `aws_iam_root_user` resource.

|
describe aws_iam_user(username: 'test_user') do
|
|
it { should exist }
|
|
end
|
