Infrastructure As Code The Hard Way
summary
An open source step‑by‑step tutorial on GitHub walks a tester through launching a web app manually then automating the same workflow incrementally with real commands: manual -> scripts -> packer -> terraform -> ansible, build a reusable VM image, put every change into git, and deploy to cloud with Terraform and Google Kubernetes Engine. Labs run on the Google Cloud free trial, use Vagrant and Docker for local parity, produce codified artifacts (packer templates, Terraform code, Ansible playbooks, Kubernetes manifests) and demonstrate a working, reproducible pipeline.
