This builds on top of #195 to mitigate newcontext-oss/kitchen-terraform#252

You should be able to set the transport. We now have a GCP transport in inspec so you would just need some options to pass in like the other transports.

Why are we setting this as default?

I think that's the current default isn't it?

I think explicitly setting it here is surprising, however. If config[:backend] is unset, let's just leave runner_options[:backend] unset, and it will determine its own default.

Are we sure backend is enough? This would only work if we use the user defaults. Is there a case where users configure different credentials for gcp, azure and aws?

Hmm. Maybe? :D

Very much so - which would actually be the production use case to have different creds

I'm not sure what you want to do here. Do you want to remove it?
If so, why treating config[:backend] differently than config[:backend_config]? Shouldn't they both go?

It has some merge conflicts, and a couple of minor points to adjust, but is basically sound. Thanks!

Apologies for the delay! Merge conflicts resolved. Plus a question.

BTW newcontext-oss/kitchen-terraform#252 has been resolved differently and so this issue no longer applies. So happy to close this PR altogether if deemed unnecessary.
