Test Driven Infrastructure with Serverspec & Kitchen CI
summary
Automated RSpec tests run against real instances, claiming to cut provisioning uncertainty and manual fixes by enforcing expected package, service and port state; examples use Serverspec with Test Kitchen orchestration and Kitchen CI wired into CI (Jenkins mentioned) so tests run on multiple drivers and catch drift before deploy. The workflow produces pass/fail results, reusable test suites for packages and services, and concrete confidence that infrastructure code actually converges.
