Martin Atkins	8330f8e991	internal/moduletest: Experimental module testing helpers ... As part of ongoing research into Terraform testing we'd like to use an experimental feature to validate our current understanding that expressing tests as part of the Terraform language, as opposed to in some other language run alongside, is a good and viable way to write practical module integration tests. This initial experimental incarnation of that idea is implemented as a provider, just because that's an easier extension point for research purposes than a first-class language feature would be. Whether this would ultimately emerge as a provider similar to this or as custom language constructs will be a matter for future research, if this first experiment confirms that tests written in the Terraform language are the best direction to take. The previous incarnation of this experiment was an externally-developed provider apparentlymart/testing, listed on the Terraform Registry. That helped with showing that there are some useful tests that we can write in the Terraform language, but integrating such a provider into Terraform will allow us to make use of it in the also-experimental "terraform test" command, which will follow in subsequent commits, to see how this might fit into a development workflow.	5 years ago
