     1  # Terraform AWS DynamoDB Example
     2  
     3  This folder contains a simple Terraform module that deploys a [DynamoDB](https://aws.amazon.com/dynamodb/) table
     4  with server-side encryption, point in time recovery and a TTL (time to live) attribute
     5  to demonstrate how you can use Terratest to write automated tests for your AWS Terraform code. 
     6  
     7  Check out [test/terraform_aws_dynamodb_example_test.go](https://github.com/terraform-modules-krish/terratest/blob/v0.29.0/test/terraform_aws_dynamodb_example_test.go) to see how you can 
     8  test this module and validate the configuration of the parameters and options.
     9  
    10  **WARNING**: This module and the automated tests for it deploy real resources into your AWS account which can cost you
    11  money.
