Examples

Test an ExpressRoute circuit resource has the correct type

describe azure_express_route_circuit(resource_group: 'RESOURCE_GROUP', circuit_name: 'EXPRESS_CIRCUIT_NAME') do
  its('type') { should eq 'Microsoft.Network/expressRouteCircuits' }
end

Test an ExpressRoute circuit resource is in a successful state

describe azure_express_route_circuit(resource_group: 'RESOURCE_GROUP', circuit_name: 'EXPRESS_CIRCUIT_NAME') do
  its('provisioning_state') { should eq 'Succeeded' }
end

Test the location of an ExpressRoute circuit resource

describe azure_express_route_circuit(resource_group: 'RESOURCE_GROUP', circuit_name: 'EXPRESS_CIRCUIT_NAME') do
  its('location') { should eq 'RESOURCE_LOCATION' }
end
