What is dgoss?
Goss is a YAML-based server validation tool designed as an alternative to serverspec. It allows system administrators and DevOps engineers to write, generate, and execute tests to verify server configurations, services, packages, and network settings. It solves the problem of ensuring server state consistency and health in automated environments.
DevOps engineers, system administrators, and infrastructure teams who need to validate server configurations in CI/CD pipelines, monitor system health, or test containerized environments.
Developers choose Goss for its ease of use, speed, and small footprint. Its ability to auto-generate tests from the current system state reduces manual effort, while support for multiple output formats and health endpoints makes it versatile for both testing and monitoring.
