Maintenance: Use pre-calculated instance names to support new Terraform Test feature
What does this MR do?
This addresses a problem that is present in tests (e.g. in my draft GitLab Dedicated instrumentor MR).
When trying to wrap a module that includes GET in a Terraform test with a mock AWS provider, the plan cannot resolve the for_each
loop on aws_ebs_volume.gitlab
. This is not a problem when running with a real AWS provider (not clear why it works, must be some optimisation when using tags?).
The attribute d.instance_name
now uses a pre-calculated instance name and it can be used in the for_each
.
