This uses terraform's template_file resource to generate a yaml properties file for serverspec to use.

• create the Rakefile in your terraform project root
• create a spec directory and put spec_helper.rb in it
• create the templates/properties.tmpl.yml file
• create the serverspec.tf
• terraform apply

tests

Tests will be matched based on roles defined for a given node.
