Does anyone know any way to override the provider version in terraform test? We’d like to be able to test different versions against our modules in out unit/integration tests before using it.
My initial thought was to use the mock_provider block in the test file but it doesnt have a version attribute, seems like it just takes the version from the provider.tf file.
Hi @canuski, unfortunately it isn’t possible to use multiple versions of a provider within any part of Terraform. The testing framework is restricted by the same requirements that prevent this within regular Terraform.
You can see a feature request for this issue here: terraform test overriding provider version · Issue #35867 · hashicorp/terraform · GitHub. Enough interest on that issue could trigger a larger investigation into removing this requirement more generally from Terraform. Thanks!
