# csv
Use the `csv` InSpec audit resource to test configuration data in a CSV file.

describe csv('file') do
its('name') { should cmp 'foo' }
end
where
* `'file'` is the path to a CSV file
* `name` is a configuration setting in a CSV file
* `should eq 'foo'` tests a value of `name` as read from a CSV file versus the value declared in the test
<br>
## Examples

### Test a CSV file

its('setting') { should eq 1 }
end
<br>
