This resource is available in the Chef InSpec Azure resource pack.
See the Chef InSpec documentation on cloud platforms for information on configuring your Azure environment for InSpec and creating an InSpec profile that uses the InSpec Azure resource pack.
Syntax
resource_group, vnet and name or the resource_id must be given as a parameter.
describe azure_subnet(resource_group: 'MyResourceGroup', vnet: 'MyVnetName', name: 'MySubnetName') do
it { should exist }
end
describe azure_subnet(resource_id: '/subscriptions/{subscriptionId}/resourceGroups/{resourceGroup}/providers/Microsoft.Network/virtualNetworks/{vnName}/subnets/{subnetName}') do
it { should exist }
end

resource_group- Azure resource group that the targeted resource resides in.
MyResourceGroup. vnet- Name of the Azure virtual network that the subnet is created in.
MyVNetName. name- Name of the Azure subnet to test.
MySubnetName. resource_id- The unique resource ID.
/subscriptions/{subscriptionId}/resourceGroups/{resourceGroup}/providers/Microsoft.Network/virtualNetworks/{vnName}/subnets/{subnetName}.
Either one of the parameter sets can be provided for a valid query:
resource_idresource_group,vnetandname
