RSpecOscalFormatter

This Library provides an RSpec Formatter that helps you to define tests that align with OSCAL Catalogs and SSPs, and produce Assessment Plan and Assessment Result documents based on the test results.

Original gem proof of concept can be found at https://github.com/Credentive-Sec/rspec_oscal_formatter

Installation

Install the gem and add to the application's Gemfile by executing:

$ bundle add rspec_oscal_formatter

If bundler is not being used to manage dependencies, install the gem by executing:

$ gem install rspec_oscal_formatter

Usage

See our demo_spec.rb for a quick overview of how to use the formatters.

See the Configuration class for global configuration options.

Spec Metadata

To invoke the Oscal Formatter, tests must include at least control_id: "" and statement_id: "" metadata tags. These can be given on either the it test or describe or context blocks.

There are a couple of optional metadata pieces you can pass:

  • implementation_statement_uuid: 'YOUR_UUID' to link the finding to the implementation.
  • rule_ids: "rule" or rule_ids: ["rule1", "rule2", ...] to link the finding to Rule_Id(s) from your imported component definitions

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and the created tag, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
