Cross Account Role Chaining Mock Credentials in Python
Simulate AWS STS AssumeRole with mock credentials for cross-account role chaining in Python.
import json
class CredentialChain:
def __init__(self, account_id, role_name):
self.account_id = account_id
self.role_name = role_name
self.credentials = {}

Mocks a cloud pricing calculator using a dictionary of service rates and computes total estimated cost for given service hours.
def estimate_cost(service, hours, rate_table=None):
if rate_table is None:
rate_table = {
"basic": 50,
"standard": 75,
"premium": 100
}
if service not in rate_table:
raise ValueError(f"Unknown service: {service}")
return rate_table[service] * hour…How to Mock ELB Target Health Status in Python
Simulate AWS Elastic Load Balancer target health checks with a Python dict that mutates status and healthy host counts.
