# windows_feature
|
|
|
|
Use the `windows_feature` InSpec audit resource to test features on Windows via the `Get-WindowsFeature` cmdlet.
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
## Availability
|
|
|
|
### Installation
|
|
|
|
This resource is distributed along with InSpec itself. You can use it automatically.
|
|
|
|
### Version
|
|
|
|
This resource first became available in v1.0.0 of InSpec.
|
|
|
|
## Syntax
|
|
|
|
A `windows_feature` resource block declares the name of the Windows feature, tests if that feature is installed, and then returns information about that feature:
|
|
|
|
describe windows_feature('feature_name') do
|
|
it { should be_installed }
|
|
end
|
|
|
|
where
|
|
|
|
* `('feature_name')` must specify a Windows feature name, such as `DHCP Server` or `IIS-Webserver`
|
|
* `be_installed` is a valid matcher for this resource
|
|
|
|
