# Kubernetes files

How to test Kubernetes files with Snyk IaC using the CLI

With Snyk Infrastructure as Code, you can test your configuration files with the CLI. Snyk Infrastructure as Code for Kubernetes supports the following:

* Deployments, Pods, and Services
* CronJobs, Jobs, StatefulSet, ReplicaSet, DaemonSet, and ReplicationController

Use the following Snyk CLI command to test for an issue on specified files:

```
snyk iac test
```

Example:

```
snyk iac test deploy.yaml
```

You can also specify multiple files by appending the file names after each other, for example:

```
snyk iac test file-1.yaml file-2.yaml
```

For the steps to scan a Helm chart using the Snyk CLI, see [Helm charts](/developer-tools/snyk-cli/scan-and-maintain-projects-using-the-cli/snyk-cli-for-iac/test-your-iac-files/helm-charts.md).

For the steps to scan a Kustomize template using the Snyk CLI, see [Kustomize files](/developer-tools/snyk-cli/scan-and-maintain-projects-using-the-cli/snyk-cli-for-iac/test-your-iac-files/kustomize-files.md).

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.snyk.io/developer-tools/snyk-cli/scan-and-maintain-projects-using-the-cli/snyk-cli-for-iac/test-your-iac-files/kubernetes-files.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
