google_users resource

Use the google_users InSpec audit resource to test properties of all, or a filtered group of, GCP users.

Syntax

A google_users resource block collects GCP users for the specified customer. As documented here, this defaults to the my_customer alias to represent your account’s customerId.

describe google_users(customer: 'my_customer') do
  it { should exist }
end

The domain argument can optionally be provided to get fields from only one domain. Either the customer or the domain parameter must be provided.

describe google_users(domain: 'my_domain.com') do
  it { should exist }
end

Use this InSpec resource to enumerate IDs then test in-depth using google_user.

google_users(customer: 'my_customer').user_ids.each do |user_id|
  describe google_user(user_key: user_id) do
    it { should exist }
    it { should_not be_suspended }
  end
end

Examples

The following examples show how to use this InSpec audit resource.

Test that there are no more than a specified number of users available for the project

describe google_users(customer: 'my_customer') do
  its('count') { should be <= 100}
end

Test that an expected user is available for the project

describe google_users(customer: 'my_customer') do
  its('user_names') { should include "Monsieur Happy" }
end

Test that a subset of all users with name matching “Batman” exists

google_users(customer: 'my_customer').where(user_full_name: /Batman/).user_ids.each do |user_id|
  describe google_user(user_key: user_id) do
    it { should exist }
  end
end
